[QUOTE="Mickey2255, post: 96400, member: 3720"] Thanks so much Sheila! You just saved me a TON of work. I hadn't had time to start digging around for stuff like this - and how can they argue with info coming from the National Association of School Psychologists? This letter they just sent me was so full of b.s. They tried to tell me that his goal of learning 5 "calming strategies" in Occupational Therapist (OT) was the same as a goal for reducing discipline referrals. Sigh. You'd all be appalled at this IEP that was pre-written before the meeting. Oh - here's another good one. They had a goal for 1-10 add/subtract math facts at 75%. My son is in 4th grade. I argued that the goal should be 100% since they stated in the PLAAFP that he knew them. In the reply letter they tell me that 100% is not realistic and for practical purposes is unattainable!! She even stated that although she knows her math facts, she still makes errors and could not expect any more from my difficult child. Double sigh. Thank goodness this woman isn't actually TEACHING my son! While you are reading - I found out that the compliance officer for the district was doing an audit earlier this week on our school's IEPs. I sent her an email late last night asking if the results of the audit were available through Freedom of Information Act. Does anyone know if they are? She knows how unhappy I am with this IEP and I gave her plenty of "food for thought" before she did the audit. Again - thanks for the help! Michelle [/QUOTE]
