[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 519757, member: 1233"] The whole situation is nuts, in my opinion. What is wrong iwth these people who have so many years experience that they cannot handle one 6yo kid? Lots of what they send him home for seems like stuff that every kid his age does. in my opinion it is them trying to get him out of their school, period. Because if he isn't there, they can pretend they are all perfect. Stupid stupid stupid. Don't you have to sign difficult child out when you pick him up at school? Tell the office you want a copy of his attendance report and you will wait while they print it out. Say it is for a doctor's appointment. They CANNOT refuse to let you have a copy, or you can just ask to see a copy of his file, but I would want a hard copy of this. I hope you are aware that each time they send him home usually counts as a suspension and at 10 days suspended they have to find a more appropriate placement, even if it is out of district or hard to find. Your son's right to FAPE in LRE is the same as every other child' right and by insisting you come to get him they are actually suspending him with-o doing the paperwork. They may not tell you that the law sees it that way, but it does. They also probably won't tell you that 10 days suspended means that they must PAY for anoth rplacement because they can't handle him. You might want to take a look around your area to see if there is a school or program you think would be a better fit for him. I don't know all the details of this, but I do know that they are way out of line and probably won't tell you about the 10 day rule. Do you have an advocate to help with this? Your mom and her friend might be great advocates because they probably know the laws. If they can't/won't/are not up to the task, contact the state dept of education and ask about getting an advocate. They are FREE to parents and they go to IEP meetings, and other meetings to help protect your son's rights. I am sorry they are so incompetent at your son's school. [/QUOTE]
