[QUOTE="Wiped Out, post: 263181, member: 1631"] Definitely convene an IEP. We have never retained my difficult child (never has been recommended) but there are times I've wondered about it and if it might not have been somewhat beneficial for my difficult child. That being said, I find it strange they want to hold back due to her being behind in math only and especially being only one grade level behind. In the school district where I teach that would not be reason for retention. Also, if her disability area is math she wouldn't necessarily be expected to be on track grade level. An IEP doesn't guarantee that a student will be kept on track with the other kids. My difficult child is in 6th grade and still reading and doing math at about a first grade level. It is not the school's fault in the case of our difficult child although I do feel some things could have been handled differently. [/QUOTE]
