[QUOTE="dreid, post: 6069, member: 3277"] The meeting is this AM... Keep me in your prayers, well wishes and/or positive thoughts. I'm nervous! But, I feel confident as I am better equip to advocate for my son One question I do have: I understand that the school needs my consent to perform evaluations, but is it mandatory that I make the initial request for the IEP evaluation? I ask, because I noticed that they kept telling me that "I" had to make the request for the evaluation in order for the IEP Team to meet concerning a plan development. I thought that if the educator identified an issue that they can make the request, and I would then have to consent. It was the teacher how identified the difficulties my son was having in school, hence the chain of events to get an IEE, and outside psychological evaluations and so forth. (FYI - while we did notice behavioral and conduct issues at home and other environments, my husband and I were always able to monitor and keep my difficult child 2 in "control" for lack of a better term. His primary issues and conditions are more severe in school than any other environment and the teacher brought them to our attention.) Just curious...because I felt the SD put the responsibility on me as the parent to make the request, even though the teacher was the one with the difficulties. [/QUOTE]
