Finally got IEP appointment
Fri, 07-28-2006 - 12:12pm
After weeks of trying I finally got a hold of someone at the BOE and would not let them off the phone until they gave me an appointment (despite her many tries to get rid of me). Everett has a new educational assessment scheduled for August 4th. Hopefully out of this I can get his classification changed to "learning disabled" from "other health impairment". Having the classification of "other health impairment" has really made it difficult in getting him into private school. The only reason they changed his classification was because the school district is overwhelmed with "learning disabled" children.
