[QUOTE="Shari, post: 298584, member: 1848"] Beth, there is an IEP. A month ago, I asked to get the meetings planned for this school year and never received a reply. 16 days before school started, when I still had heard nothing, I requested a meeting to review/dispute/discuss the current IEP. Maybe I'm wrong, but I thought they only had 10 days to pull that meeting together because I was addressing a specific issue in the IEP. 10 days has long passed. And maybe I'm wrong. Sharon, that is exactly my concern. The first few days could make or break the whole good run that difficult child has going. He is excited for school...he popped up this morning thinking this was the first day, but its not. I dont' want him to miss the first day, but I want the first day to be planned for, or it won't be good. I thought about not sending him. That's not fair to him. So I think I will send him and I will go with him. They relied on me as his para last year... If they suddenly have a plan and tell me to leave, I will refuse until I know what that plan is AND approve of it. That's my thought as of this morning. And I think I'll modify your letter just a bit to say I'll be bringing him and send it. Thanks. An added kicker...we went to OK yesterday to get another recommendation from the 2nd opinion DevPed there. On the way there, last year's SpEd teacher called me. She had been accussed of not turning in a signature sheet that she knew I had a copy of. She was also trying to make a schedule for the paras for her incoming kids and she wanted to know if I knew what the plan was for wee difficult child. She has been trying to get info from the new SpEd teacher, to no avail. And the SpEd Director had [I]JUST [/I]told her they'd been in contact with me all summer. NO ONE has talked to her about wee difficult child (how can they have much of a plan if they have not talked to the one person on the staff that actually knew him!) She at least extended the offer to come in with wee difficult child and use her room as we did last year on the first day so that he can at least be a part. She is also very concerned about the setup to fail. So in addition, I am going to print a copy of all of my emails to the school this summer, and all of their replies. I am also going to print out my phone records, which show the number of incoming calls, and highlight the school. May not need it, but it might be good to have. [/QUOTE]
