[QUOTE="keista, post: 464535, member: 11965"] A gentle reminder to the principal that if your son gets 10 suspensions you can look for alternative placement for difficult child that will come out of HIS (the principal's) school budget. I'm pretty sure that's the way the IEP protection works. I was appalled at my own advocate when she told the IEP team that if I had to come pick up son from school again, it [B]should be[/B] counted as a suspension. I thought she was "throwing him under the bus" She explained that if he just gets sent home, then nothing will change, but if he gets a suspension, 10 or more in a semester, it means they are either not appropriately following the IEP or are UNABLE to follow the IEP and new placement gets to be considered at district expense. Of course, she' had years of experience with this school, and knew son's behavior issues were truly on the mild end and told me he'd never get a suspension again. She was right - for various reasons, including the fact that son was actually getting better with medication, but the school became more amenable and flexible. [/QUOTE]
