[QUOTE="Martie, post: 5734, member: 284"] You need a FULL evaluation to terminate Special Education service LEGALLY (does your SD follow the law?) except in two cases: high school graduation and "aging out." Neither applies to your difficult child, obviously. If you go back up this thread, that is why I said earlier, if they seem to have already made up their minds to terminate, ask for a REALLY complete evaluation of everything that could possibly interfere with continued educational progress in the mainstream. First it will provide information that might reveal a reason for them to change their minds; second, doing the evaluation. might be more hassle than it is worth, so they will choose not to do it; third, if they will continue services as they are, you could waive the triennial re-evaluation under the revised law if they agree. You should ONLY waive if you have it in writing first that by waiving, his Spe Ed eligibility will be maintained. It's only logical: the ostensible reason for waiving is "no new information is needed." Therefore, the evaluation that qualified him 3 years ago stands as currently correct. So he still needs Sp Ed services. This is very confusing--and I hope I haven't muddied the waters. Martie [/QUOTE]
