[QUOTE="klmno, post: 153252, member: 3699"] Thanks, Sharon! Christy, I don't know that I'm a big fan of how No Child Left Behind and SOL's are being implemented. I know the concept is great but the downside is weeks of stress and pressure on teachers that gets put on our kids' shoulders and sometimes, a few people who will change grades (not sol grades- class grades) and pass a kid on because they didn't have an effective IEP and this is the way to keep the kid from being "left behind". Of course, the kid didn't learn what they should have. It has been my experience that the good, caring teachers do what needs to be done whether there are iep accommodations or not, and the bad ones don't, no matter what. [/QUOTE]
