[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 504198, member: 11791"] Buddy...After all you've been through this week (and its only Tuesday)...There are some positives...1) Your advocate is... incredible. In the medium term, she will get the momentum going in the correct direction.2) The sp. ed. dir & coordinator... are starting to find their voice. A bit late, but at least they are a voice from within the system3) the new therapist... WOW.Totally agree with your take on the sp ed school... We have one here (really, for such a dinosaur of a system, they handle a wide range of extreme needs, very well)... kids with tons of "behavior issues" because of OTHER issues... some classrooms are more than 1:1 (i.e. every kid has an aide, plus the teacher, plus sometimes another resource for special situations).... and parents are partners, welcome to observe on 5 minutes notice (if there are kids in that class that can't handle transitioning to visitors, then that class has a one-way glass... so parents can still observe).
