[QUOTE="Mickey2255, post: 124955, member: 3720"] I would also formally request a Functional Behavior Assessment be done to develop a Behavior Intervention Plan in conjunction with the IEP. If at all possible, push to have "real" behavior specialists to the FBA, and not just the school counselor/psychiatric. When the BIP is actually written try to mention as often as possible that her specific behaviors are related to her ADHD. This will be of a big help later if she passes that golden 10 day mark of suspensions and you have to have a Manifestation Determination meeting. After that BIP is in place, be super diligent in making sure that the school is actually following the plan. EVERY time she gets suspended for behavior ask to meet to review the BIP and revise as necessary. And make sure the BIP has a whole lot more positive than negative to it - our kiddos can't help some of this behavior and getting in trouble for it can be so demeaning for them. Trust me on this topic - we are now homeschooling because the school didn't do enough and I wasn't as diligent as I should have been (though I sure as heck thought I was!). Michelle [/QUOTE]
