[QUOTE="klmno, post: 39599, member: 3699"] Thanks for the suggestions! I'm not familiar with NAMI or CASA but will look into both. The guardian AL calls about every 10-14 days to say she's still working on it- seeing if the prosecuter will reduce charges. so far they won't because 6 fire trucks were called (for a brush fire of less than $100 damage). She asked for a competency hearing and that's set for May 21. It just seems to me to be dragging things out longer- these things happened 3rd week of March. Agression at school so far has been limited to throwing a book, pushing another boy in hallway, saying FU to a boy who told him to give him a magazine- no agression toward girls or teachers. It appears more like not handling it well when another boy says or does something that he doesn't like or that hurts his feelings. My appeal letter covered 5 points- 1) the last manifestation determination (were the admin person and case manager qualified/allowed to determine this wasn't related to ED if I disagreed); 2) if all but one were related to ED, how is he qualified to be habitual offender; 3) length of suspension (mid-Mar. through end of school year- mid-June) for this; 4) placement on homebound- not appropriate or adequate and does nothing to help Special Education requirements- plus it will make things worse for next year; 5) IEP accommodations at school (if school doesn't have adequate personnel, then school system has to either provide adequate personnel or pay for him to go to school somewhere that does). All of this got tied up for another month because instead of being presented to the school board last week, they claimed they were still reviewing the case with the superintendent, which apparently has no time limit, so it can't be officially appealed until that it over- which means they tie it up until shortly before end of school year. The place that does inpatient evaluations has an inpatient treatment program and a day program with an educational program. even if the school agreed to pay for educational compoonent, I can't get him in this place if charges can't be lowered from felonies. It seemed like the judge wanted this to happen but he put it in the hands of people who just don't get how critical this is and who certainly are not in any hurry. [/QUOTE]
