[QUOTE="Shari, post: 374373, member: 1848"] JJJ, I'm not sure... Self contained worked last year, but we had an adequately trained teacher. I don't think we have that now. I also think that change in placement (to gen ed instead of self contained) without adequate data to support the decision is why they've extended his day back out to match last year's times...I think that was an attempt to placate me so I don't make a stink about the rest of it. The teacher they said would be working with him is, according to former alum, worthless. At the schedule meeting yesterday, tho, I discovered there will be another teacher involved, and I unfortunately know nothing about her. I do know she does not have the autism and behavioral training the other teacher had, so I am seriously questioning her ability to work with him. I know that is not my problem, but that's who the players are right now. I will be demanding that they get someone in there trained to handle him in either setting, and I want his sped minutes equal to last year. Then they can mix in gen ed time for the duration of the day - get him back in recess, specials, etc, so he has some peer time. I'm not going for mainstream...not in the least. But I don't want him totally isolated this year, either. [/QUOTE]
