[QUOTE="kim75062, post: 703948, member: 20727"] To sum it up they have not followed his IEP, they insist that the alternative school is the only place for "kids like him", and they have gave up after a few frustrating weeks. The lssp has spent 10 mins with him since being moved to the new school. I talked to him today and he really knew nothing about my son. Which shows me he's not invested in actually helping him. Occupational Therapist (OT) has 1 20 min session. But no wobble chair was tried, no rubber band chair leg thing, no weighted vest and no raised line paper in the classroom. The teacher would really be great for him if he was there consistently, (2 inservice full days, 1 1/2 day and out for 3 days sick.) out of the 19 school days my son has been there's in the last 30 school days. The paras have been there for a few hours some days and not at all others, which leads to issues with transitions that end up in trying to escape. They tried to punish him by sending him to ISS which he loved, and I think put the idea in his head that doing "bad behavior" gets me out of this crowed classroom where I'm not learning anything new and don't want to be into a better room with more attention and fun things to do. The principal seems to think that he just has unpredictable behaviors for no reason. The answer every time I ask why did this happens is "we don't know, nothing lees up to or provoked the behavior". Because he's so difficult and was pushed on the new school I think the principal is just frustrated and gave up. And I agree that I'm not going to force the school into keeping a child there that they don't want. Nothing good will come of it. I'm a member of the Texas home school coalition already and they provide all the free legal help you need to deal with the school board if they decide they really want to try to push anything. Also in Texas all parents are required to do is withdraw their student and give them a letter of intent to home school. There's no real requirements, and the school has no legal leg to stand on against parents choosing that. At this point I'm sure the school will be happy to be rid of him and me . [/QUOTE]
