[QUOTE="slsh, post: 251795, member: 8"] Yes, Shari - I think so. On a positive note - principal is admitting that current placement may not be appropriate *and* is admitting that they've treated him like a student with an IEP. And also - bravo to them for getting training! Really - that's not the norm in my experience. Half days is not FAPE in LRE. Ten-day rule applies here. He's very clearly acknowledging knowledge that difficult child is potentially covered under IDEA. I think the concerning news is that principal doesn't see services changing if he qualifies for IEP (which of course he will). So... this is just going to be an ongoing issue. They don't get to *not* educate a kid just because he's a handful. Again, hate to beat a dead horse, but I think they are laying groundwork for school to be an ongoing struggle for difficult child, even though principal feels difficult child is "meeting some success" right now. If the solution to the problem is to cut back his access to education (illegal in my humble opinion), he will eventually have academic issues on top of his behavioral and social ones. If he's not there, he cannot be educated. I feel really strongly about this, probably more so now 13+ years out since my own difficult child starting having school issues. It can snowball so quickly, Shari. I'm so sorry - while there are definitely positives in principal's response, I think the bottom line (in my biased eyes ;) ) is that SD feels they can dictate under what circumstances they will educate difficult child. He's 6 for heavens sake. Sending you calm, strong, assertive :warrior: vibes! [/QUOTE]
