[QUOTE="buddy, post: 554425, member: 12886"] The facilitator sounds great and the whole he is choosing to do this and taking him out will teach him to act out to get out of school....I doubt it. I think Ktllc had a similar issue and she is probably a good one to relate to that. Why not use this girl who wants to be a facilitator to just do some early childhood activities with him like going to play spots or gymnastics or other activities where he can work on some social skills and maybe even at your house do some preschool academic types of things.....play with blocks, identify his name in letters etc... those kinds of things. ...because if they are saying he has to repeat that level anyway it may be that this is just not a good match and may do more harm than good to stay...., by the way--repeating grades doesn't happen much here if a child is identified as disabled since retention is not shown to help develop skills in and of itself. Now, there are times when it makes sense and we did it when we switched districts because from one place to the next had totally different philosophies, and certainly in preschool/kindergarten it is not quite as big a deal in my humble opinion...just odd that they use that as their only go to intervention for you, pretty sad. anyway, it seems like in your case if they are just going to have him repeat the same old stuff with no intervention, you may want a different school. Maybe I am just assuming that but I wish you had more options, I'm so sorry. [/QUOTE]
