[QUOTE="Jena, post: 240653, member: 4514"] hi, wow that was long lol thank u for taking the time and thought to share your experiences with me for my difficult child. :) I'm sorry to hear you had to go thru all of that it's just insanity it truly is. ELAs are a joke to me i hate hate them!!!! My difficult child cannot handle the resource room due to her anxiety level, which is often out of control on many occassions. one of her diagnosis's is infact. Also the school had no right to place her in there with-o telling me first. Same exact thing on my part they said resource room 3x a week starting next year. last year she barely got a 2 and this year she tanked. Reason being hmm pick a disorder and link it to the symptoms of that disorder lol, seriously though :) The school to my understanding cannot hold difficult child back due to her failing the ela's, yet they tried to pull a hmm educational neglect card on me the day she didnt' go in for it, so i had my pediatrician write a letter and fax it to the school stating due to her various symptoms she struggles with her anxiety is too high today to handle this formalized test blah, blah, blah. last thing I need is a cps call on me in my job, i'd get fired no doubt. I'm actually an advocate and new at it, i'm going to be bringing others with me to the initial meeting for the iep. i'm soo not going in alone. they are much better versed on the laws in new york state than i am in regards to this issue. They do infact use the ela scores to place the school's ranking, they also state they use it for following years placement which in our school is bs bigtime! i'm going private tutor for now, difficult child lacks focus and has severe attention problems, staying on task, as well as has always done poorly on these types of tests. it's a long history with this school. last year we handled it on bldg level, difficult child almost got hospitalized she was decomposing to say the least, than i quit my last job and put forth a whole lotta effort into her and here we are now and i'm employed again. The school had this "we can fix" her attitude last year when we entered the school i said umm ok lol good luck with that. she recvd. weekly counseling, an anxiety group did nothing lol. than by the end of the year staff was apologizing oh we're so sorry we didn't realize how severe it was blah blah carp. this year a new school psychologist started and everything was different, no more accommodations for difficult child on any level, them stating oh she's fine, not telling me when she goes to the nurse due to her anxiety issues, they didn't even tell me difficult child failed the ela until i questioned why is she being retested?? I was told as per her principal that according to new york law each child is mandated to take rr 3x a week whether they have an iep or not. I said really i'll check those facts at my office. than i learned at work that's a load of bs also. with an iep in place which she will have she will not be pulled out 3x a week to do rr. are you experiencing the new math their trying to jump on board with now that california is doing?? it's insane it's kinda like a backward approach to math. reason their doing it, because california's scores are so high.
