[QUOTE="keista, post: 471719, member: 11965"] Better than refusing consent, would be to take some time (a day or two) to review and discuss with your wife the placement plans, and then meet again with the team suggesting any revisions. You can even let them know that you will want some time to review and consider the placement so can they schedule a second meeting ahead of time. You have a unique situation, in that you are not looking for "just" a least restrictive environment, but also MOST appropriate. IOW, for your child, a regular public school will not do. It MUST have a program for gifted students - this does relate to the LRE. I'm bringing this up because the school *should*, as [B]slsh[/B] said, begin with placement within the school. BUT very often, shools try to get out of this by saying they don't have those resources, or due to budget cuts, blah, blah blah. These are [B]not[/B] valid reasons to physically move your child to a different placement, but they always try anyway. In general, a school for gifted students is less equipped with behavioral sped supports (by the way sped refers to all disability accommodations, not just academically challenged - think blindness, wheelchair use etc.) [/QUOTE]
