[QUOTE="Shari, post: 381386, member: 1848"] Marg, I beat them to the punch with the local police and the SRO. I feel tho that things are close enough to out of hand that I need to consult an attorney. The advocates can provide an attorney, but with the one advocate's tendency to like the fight, and her attitude toward the district's attorney, I want an outside opinion before I make another move. You have described exactly how I feel. We have a document that, while still not perfect, does outline some techniques that are still being blatantly ignored. (I don't really care, at this point, IF they thought they were doing it right. The one para has been his para for a year. As they say, its time to poop or get off the pot. I understand learning curve, but this is ridiculous.) I am also considering talking with someone "in general" at the department of education about where to go from here. K, I agree. I have been on the phone this morning and juvie in this county isn't a horrible thing to have happen. It could possible be an avenue to get Wee into the alternative school in the next district, if, indeed, our district has attempted to get him there and they have refused. What the SRO referred to was a different school, but also remember that Wee encounter zero issues while he was solely in the resource room...they've made a decision to put him in mainstream like this, I intend to hold their feet to the fire to get the people on board to make it work. Or they can put him back in the sped room. OR they can find another placement. I don't really care which. SOmething just needs to happen that WORKS. 'Cause what's going on right now isn't. Period. The bad thing is, if that alternative school won't take him, the only other options are surrounding public schools, and what will we have gained by that, or distant boarding schools. We are a very rural area. There is not a lot to choose from. So yes, I guess I'm looking at it from the perspective of if this isn't followed, then DP is really my only matter of recourse. ANd I do NOT want to go to DP because then no one wins...it becomes one giant game of CYA, and Wee's needs take a seat even further back on the bus... But we're close to filing something. I am pretty much backed in a corner at the moment. [/QUOTE]
