[QUOTE="slsh, post: 406422, member: 8"] been there done that with- thank you. I was not a happy camper. I felt the school succumbed to his bologna manipulations and took the easy way out. But it was a therapeutic school, with folks who were intimately informed of his medications, diagnoses, multiple hospitalizations, ongoing therapy, etc. I felt they should have known better. In a regular education setting, for a child with (I'm assuming) no IEP, and school staff with no knowledge of what treatments he may or may not be getting, I cannot say this was out of line. The SD referred him for evaluation. That evaluation by non-SD staff determined he needed to be admitted. The flip side of this is what if the boy had not been evaluated in the hospital and *had* hurt himself? Pretty much a no-win situation all the way around. What do you think the chances are the SD will initiate an educational evaluation and provide appropriate supports for him now? [/QUOTE]
