[QUOTE="DaisyFace, post: 323268, member: 6546"] Well, I don't want to be too hard on this woman--she is clearly stretched beyond what one human being is capable of accomplishing. There are 43 schools in the district that she is responsible to visit...PLUS she is affiliated with some other non-school facilities, as well. With the 180 school days calendar, she might be lucky to be able to visit each school 4 times...and during each of those four visits, she must address the school children that the teachers and guidance counselors have identified as in need of extra counseling services. With 1500+ students at my daughter's school alone, I imagine that quite a few have been indentified as being in need of counseling....so that leaves just a few minutes for the counselor to make a quick assessment of each student, including difficult child. But, it would have been nice to get a vote for "Yes, I think we need to push for additionally services for this child"... instead of "O--it looks like difficult child has everything under control and is doing great." Realistically, probably too mcuh to hope for... --DaisyFace [/QUOTE]
