[QUOTE="buddy, post: 535957, member: 12886"] oh he77 no, they are snowing you. An FBA is a functional behavior analysis which is used IF the child has a behavior or behaviors that are interfering with his/her learning or the learning of others. It is ONE kind of assessment tool (and yes it is needed to write a behavior plan but not an IEP unless there are specific behaivor goals on the IEP that need analysis). IF her needs are in other areas then other tests/assessment tools are used. THe number of FBA's done with students in all my years of teaching is few and far between, far less than what SHOULD be done, but all those kids still have their IEP's. I have never heard of a child being put in a different/mainstream setting without some kind of transition. K is still early childhood and there is no way they can assume she wont need supports in that kind of environment given that she only started improving with her challenges when she was put in a specialized setting. It is lunacy. I would get an advocate yesterday. Call the state disability law advocates (they travel so even if far it is worth calling) if you can't find a Special Education parent advocacy place to call. Your state dept of ed. will be able to tell you where advocates can be found too. by the way you can always call them, ask for the Special Education. division when things like this happen and run it by them. They can set the record straight and I had a complaint one time and they shut down a whole series of paperwork problems and use of secluded time out rooms in many programs with out the proper channels being used. Depends as always of course, but it is worth the try. I am really sorry they are giving you such doo doo for excuses. [/QUOTE]
