[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 699291, member: 1550"] Have you called and reported this your state Dept. Of Public Education, special Meeds Coorddinator? You should. They are over all the school districts and won't agree with this horrible way of dealing with your son. Since they can investigate, and also this department determines which school districts get state money, the district will listen to them We did this. Just being angry or doing it yourself when the district won't cooperate is a common mistake and doesn't work. If they truly can't do better, they are obligated to pay for a school that is, as well as the transportstion. But you obviously won't get anywhere if you don't let the Head Honcho, your special needs advocate at the state level, know how they are not helping your son. Our school district treated both my kids like royalty after they realized I would stop at nothing to get my autistic son help. I won't quibble over your sons latest diagnosis, but I will emphasize that MY son never misbehaved in school, but he wasn't being taught in a way that maximized his learning until hub and I gave the district some tough love. After that, both school districts realized they couldn't screw with us, were awesome acting to both kids who went to their schools, and my son got his FAPE. His good school experience lead to what a cool, functional young man he grew up to be. And happy. He was diagnosed with ADHD and bipolar until age 11 when he got a comprehensive evaluation. He can make eye contact too, but he is still on the high end of the spectrum. All Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) kids have bad anxiety. It remains to be seen what your sons final diagnosis will be. But you need to make the school intervene with sons known behaviors or he won't learn and he will be given the wrong allusion that he is "bad." That leaves you with very few options...some sort of homeschooling with a cirriculum or challenging your school district in ways Imentioned. If u keep it it as is, nothing will change for the better. They will do as they please and walk all over your sons rights. You have to be willing to go over the heads of the entire school district, because they will all stick together from superintrndant to officr staff. They are all a team. Yoi need somepne involved who idnt one of the disttoct.And for us THAT changed everything. Homeschooling is easier if you are shy or afraid to go to the state drpt. Of education. Both work. Good luck. Fight the good fight for your kid. He can't do it himself. [/QUOTE]
