[QUOTE="Sheila, post: 241737, member: 23"] As you've experienced, 504's are hard to enforce. Your child needs a full evaluation. On your other thread regarding sample letters, I've edited a letter that should make the sd comply with-IDEA regs regarding evaluations and re-evaluations. by the way, just so you know, the sd may not dismiss an IEP student from IDEA/IEP without first having done a reevaluation. If a parent is not careful, the "reevaluation" amounts to nothing more than "we say difficult child is no longer eligible for an IEP." If you read the regs, unless there's a good reason not to and parent agrees, reevaluations are supposed to be done the same way the initial evaluation was done. But in your difficult child's case, he's been dropped from Special Education therefore he has to go through the process as if he'd never been qualified for an IEP. The evaluation he needs is the Full and Initial evaluation (called by different names in states). Just so you know, the regs state that the child shall be evaluated in all areas of "suspected" disability. You can help the sd "suspect" using a Parent Report. If you do, retitle it Parent Input. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
