[QUOTE="Sheila, post: 23561, member: 23"] Hi Kjs: Without a response from you to the info request in your previous threads in this forum, it's difficult to be of much assistance. Regarding behavior, however, you need to make a written request for a FBA. What is an FBA? See [url="http://cecp.air.org/fba/default.asp"]http://cecp.air.org/fba/default.asp[/url] . [b]It is VERY important that the request be sent to the school district via Certified Mail.[/b] I typically fax a copy of correspondence to speed up snail mail, HOWEVER, the letter must still be sent Certified Mail. There are sample letters in the Special Education archives if you need them. My letter would be formulated as follows: Certified Mail No.______________ Fax No. (xxx) xxx-xxxx March X, 2007 Dear Mr/Mrs. Special Education Director X Independent School District Address City, State zip Re: difficult child XXX School Dear Mr/Mrs. Special Education Director: My son, ___________, attends ___________ School. His current behavior plan is inappropriate and ineffective. As related to IDEA, this letter is a formal request for a Functional Behavioral Assessment. I would appreciate hearing from you within five days pertinent to when the FBA will be performed and by whom. Sincerely, Mom Address Without knowing what is causing a child's behavior, it is difficult to put effective interventions into place. An FBA is a tool that can help. I'll pull some other behavior info for you and post it a bit later. [/QUOTE]
