[QUOTE="pepperidge, post: 421333, member: 2322"] Sorry, I don't know the specifics of your situation. I'm going to play the devil's advocate. What do you really want for him? Do you want the teacher to do certain things? Is the teacher refusing? What is really the issue? Again not knowing the specifics but with a kid who is excelling either you have to identify specific accommodations that you want the teacher to make and then document that teacher won't make them I think if you want to get anywhere. Sounds like he ought to be tested for the gifted and talented program or whatever they call it in your district--maybe that is part of whatever problem he has? While I am in favor of kids getting services early-it is really hard to tell from what you have said if your son is within normal behavior.organization parameters or it there is a serious issue. If you go the 504 route you will need I believe from my experience some official diagnosis from either a neuropsychologist or an MD. If you haven't had neuropsychologist testing done that might be a more worthwhile avenue to explore rather than battling with the school district at this point. It would give you a far better leg to stand on in terms of needing accommodations. [/QUOTE]
