[QUOTE="KTMom91, post: 418608, member: 4040"] Hello and welcome! Miss KT's first grade teacher was one of those who knew it all, and "recommended" she be pulled out of class for all sorts of "helpful interventions" that were not necessary or helpful. I'm personally not a major fan of pull-out programs, and when the idiot school psychiatric pulled Miss KT for something, without my consent, I blew. I can be very confrontational and blunt, and I was very clear on what would and would not be done with my child. Honestly, at this point, I wouldn't trust Teacher A as far as I could throw her with regard to your son. Sounds like she has a diagnosis fixed in her mind, and whether or not that diagnosis is correct remains to be seen. I understand about the handwriting and spelling...Miss KT still doesn't hear vowels very well, and her adviser told her this semester that her handwriting looks like someone tried to shove twenty-five giraffes in a three-inch space. And even though she's almost twenty? She can't write in cursive. She prints everything but the scribble that passes for her signature. [/QUOTE]
