[QUOTE="tryinghard, post: 134024, member: 4570"] Thanks to both of you for posting! Yes, RSP is a Resource Specialist Teacher. She is the main teacher that works in two of his class rooms with him (and other students ) during the day. We had his last IEP meeting in the end of January and that is when I asked the question of what exactly were his learning disabilities according to the testing the schools did. (He has been on an IEP since first grade, he is now in sixth) She said, "I don't know, let's go look". At the time, I didn't think too much about it, but now it bothers me. She has been working with my son since the beginning of September and doesn't even know what his specific challenges\strengths are???!!! I find this very odd and wanted to know if I was off base or not. He is on an IEP but in my opinion it is weak. He has no accomdations that they refuse to come up with any. I honestly had no idea about accomdations until I found this website a few months ago. Based on advice you have given me previously, I am in the process of getting him a NeuroPhysic (sp) outside the school and I have hired an advocate. I will be setting up another IEP once I have these results with the advocate present so that we can hopefully get an IEP that is meaningful. What I have encountered in both schools is that they really do not want to help and write the IEP that is easiest on them. Do you have any other advice for me? [/QUOTE]
