[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 426840, member: 1233"] That is good to hear. The prior sped teacher sounds like J's 4th gr teacher. She was "the best" with sped kids because she had a son with Fetal Alcohol Effects (FAE) and "issues". In reality she HATED the sped kids and did ALL she could to kick them out of her class. So all the sped kids were put in her class and she kept them out of the room for everything even sort of interesting. I do mean EVERYTHING. She wouldn't even let them eat lunch with the class or participate in pizza parties or cake for bdays. She said HORRIBLE racist things to me about the three sped kids in her class and then lied when I called her on them. Now she is the principal and has driven most of the teachers who were not her close friends away fromt he school plus they have more requests for transfers than any other school in the district. She is HORRIBLE as a person and an educator. I think she and the old sped teacher would get along just great, ick. I am glad that this year's sped is better and I hope she is staying for the next few. Heck, maybe she will take a Waldorf School approach and move up with Wee when he leaves elem school. (I have a cousin who teaches in a Waldorf school and each year she teaches the same group of kids the next grade. She started with kindergarteners and then went with them up through sixth grade. Both she and the students LOVED this. The right sp ed teacher can make a HUGE difference. When the sped teacher that made a giant difference for Wiz moved to another district we seriously considered moving to that town so Wiz could still have her. But the other teachers were NOT up to standards and it would have been bad for the other kids. [/QUOTE]
