[QUOTE="Martie, post: 133779, member: 284"] Hi, Welcome to our world..glad you found us, sorry you need to..... in my opinion you need a crash course in your rights as a parent of a child with an IEP. It s a very good thing that you won the MD hearing...your difficult child's behavior is now considered a manifestation of his disability for which he CANNOT be subject to normal disciplinary procedures. I DEFINITELY would not my "goofy" child who was on a rule out BiPolar (BP) diagnosis to be in an environment with acting out conduct problem kids...on their way to juvie, which is the same thing as on their way to prison, often, although there are a few people here who have gotten a "turn around" from juvie--but not many. Your son is entitled to be educated in the least restrictive environment aht can meet his needs... The LRE is negotiated on an INDIVIDUAL basis...the first word in IEP is "individual." You are a full participating member of the IEP team...they cannot just "send him" some where. The team needs a justification as to why he needs a more restrictive placement than he currently has because the law FAVORS but does not require inclusion. Basically, this part of the board deals with law, rules, and regs, and in order to benefit, you have to "get in the game" in regard to self-education. There are good threads in the archives of this section; there is a sticky post at the top of the forum posted by the other mod, Sheila, and I recommend you spend some significant time on [URL="http://www.wrightslaw.com"]www.wrightslaw.com[/URL] reading. You cannot become a warrior mom without knowledge. Your difficult child is in danger of being a "push out" of school and you do not want that. It is possible to prevent it becasue he is IN Special Education, and you WON the manifestation determination hearing. You are off to a good start! Martie :warrior: [/QUOTE]
