[QUOTE="Shari, post: 265090, member: 1848"] I totally agree with you, SRL. Totally. It is their job and they aren't doing it. My post above was really in response to UpAllNight's reply, was more just filling her in the rest of the story. I editted it to hoefully portray that. That said, tho, the school, plans on me coming in til the end of the year. I know this. I also know that I don't plan to. This was a transition. I offered to come in to [I]transition[/I] him into the afternoons and agreed to do it longer than the initial week because I think its good for difficult child to be successful. This will be the third week I am going in. Three weeks with ZERO problems. After this week, I will be expecting a para to be shadowing me, in prep to hand it off to them. I think three weeks is sufficient to get him in the groove and prove to them that this can be done [I]if they get the right people. [/I]Huge emphasis on the right people. Heck, I think I could largely keep him in the mainstream classroom 95% of the time and on task if I were his aide. Which I'm willing to do if they're willing to put me on the bankroll. (don't want to, but would) They are finally starting the FBA tomorrow, too. This year is a wash. All I am trying to get from this year is a strategy for next. I hear you, SRL. Please don't get too frustrated with me; I just vent thsi stuff here becaus it seems amazing the lengths this guy will go to to try to avoid educating difficult child. And what's best to make the school do their job isn't always what's best for difficult child - I'm trying to walk the line in the middle and lay the groundwork and learn the ropes so I can deal and dish back as needed on the fly. I've already involved those higher up in the district and so far, every time I've called them in, they've come in and corrected things, in my favor, so I don't feel its time for the lawyer just yet. The district, as a whole, is not the problem. The problem is that principal who, I feel, will just keep finding loopholes to attempt to hang me with. I've got to learn to deal with him, but before I start spouting anything back to him, I need to make sure I'm in the right. I'm getting there. [/QUOTE]
