After sleeping on it, I think we need to go to the intermediate school and check out the SD class there. IF we agree to sd classes on his IEP/BIP now, then he will most assuredly be there in the fall in a new school as a sixth grader. We're so torn as to what to do .. one side of us thinks that the school is out to get him, the other side thinks they really do want to help and get him on the right track. I STILL hate the way we were railroaded, though, and makes me wonder WHY they felt the need for eight of them to explain it to us unless they suspected our opposition.
