[QUOTE="buddy, post: 490953, member: 12886"] Once you have an IEP then no 504 plan, they are both under the ADA. IEP is enforcable with punitive and monitory sanctions. So, who the heck is his case manager? Who is running the IEP and what does the IEP say???? Under accomodations, that is where you can add what he needs, and sounds like he needs new goals too. IF they are saying that he is choosing not to do what is well known that kids with adhd (PLUS) in your case, do, then you need an advocate. You can call for an IEP meeting at any time. The IEP can be re-written at any time, and a significant change form can be used to change the IEP goals. If he struggles with following procedures on his own then a method needs to be put in place to help work on that. NO matter the reason. AS our home behavior person tells the IEP team all of the time: It does not matter whether he is CHOOSING not to use it or CANT use it. The problem is he IS NOT using it and it is our job to help him to do so. Stop all the judgement and just look objectively at the behavior. Keep fighting.... you have a school that clearly only wants to do the minimum and then complain when he is not fixing himself... to think medications are a FIX is nonsense. It only puts a kid in a place to better be able to handle the adaptations and revised teaching methods we have for them. I hate it when they think a medication will just magically fix things.
