[QUOTE="CrazyinVA, post: 374591, member: 1157"] Just wanted to add my "good luck" to you in this battle. This may or may not be relevant, since you're not seeking homebound services in the home, per se, but I wanted to add my experience with homebound in my county. Both Oldest and Youngest were put on homebound several times. Oldest the most, because of her health issues from the Crohn's (she was in and out of the hospital). Our issue was a lack of homebound teachers (i.e, funding). Each time one of my kids was put on homebound, it took at least 2 weeks for them to find a teacher to fill the spot. In one case, Oldest finally got her homebound teacher, and her assignments, the [U]week before [/U]she was to return to school. We ended up having the "homebound" teacher come after school/evenings for a couple more weeks, to help her make up the work. Still, it was infuriating, because for the majority of the time they were "homebound," my kids weren't getting ANY instruction. They just fell further behind. Given your school's issues with personnel resources, I wanted to share that experience. [/QUOTE]
