[QUOTE="Woofens, post: 201928, member: 4425"] I'm really hoping that this was an isolated event, but looking back there were couple times last year when it was a struggle to get him on the bus. I think alot of it has to do with the fact that he is really struggling in 1st grade. The school wanted to retain him last year and do another year of kindergarten, but his age is a factor. He is almost 7 and in first grade because of when his birthday falls. The problem is that he can do the work here for me at home (with a bit of a struggle in math). The teacher is saying that he doesn't have the foundation that he should have gotten in kindergarten. He shows us here that he does. I'm not sure what the problem is at school. We have already talked about possibly moving him back into K for the rest of this year, but now I'm wondering in SPED services would benefit him more. I am making the formal request for an evaluation by the school for SPED services next week ( there is a post in the SPED forum about this). I'm just so frustrated, and feeling let down by the school system. I remember this feeling from my struggles with SPED with easy child T, but I really never realized that they just have no services to help a difficult child like mine. When I'm doing everything I can to get him to school, and they offer no help and only offer him empty threats, I think the system has failed. Kind of make me want to kick and scream and throw things too. LOL sorta. Thanks for all the support I can't tell you how much I appreciate it. Jan [/QUOTE]
