[QUOTE="klmno, post: 236157, member: 3699"] Yep, he's home so far so good. He took the garbage out without being asked- that's a good sign! Thanks Crazy & Terry! No, I have gotten around to contacting and copying all others yet. I had a meeting at school today that I posted at on the Special Education forum- they (ed spec & sd sw) said that because I want to pursue changing class. from ed to ohi, that they need to do evaluations that might knock difficult child out of eligibility to be on iep and that they have lots of disabled kids who aren't on IEP's. Let them try finding him ineligible for iep- we'll be in mediation over that one. I was shicked too- it's normally the people on the "lower" rungs of the ladder trying to refuse things and the higher ups acknowledging some need. If the cm at school is honest about all they are doing to help difficult child at school (albeit, it isn't enough), it is clear that his disability effects his ability to learn. So even though an IEP is not supposed to be jjust for "bad behavior" and even though the ED class isn't supposed to labe a kid as a bad kid, they clearly are admitting that my son was put on an iep 3 years because of behavior and now he isn't a behavior problem anymore - that is the way this county does things. Well, I think that position is not in compliance with wrightslaw, personally. But, I'm glad my son got his behavior at school straightened out so now they can see things like this written from teachers: "behavior is good, however attention is poor", "poor organization skills", "trouble focusing", etc. I'm starting to think the the people hired in the sd Special Education dept (at the central office) are hired to make sure the sd has to accommodate and pay for minimal services, and that's their primary role.
