We are in the process of getting Tom moved to a new school placement.

(((HEATHER))))
this is the same run around we've been dealing with for YEARS! It stinks. They build plenty of time into the eval process for them to get their paper work done and their stuff together, but you're damned if you don't turn it around in seconds-- they'll blame anyone and everyone but themselves on the delays.
We finally have a special ed team that takes ME seriously. They have learned from experience that I do know what I'm talking about when it comes to my child's behaviors and how he'll react. Unfortunately because of how our schools are set up we'll only have this team for one year. Next year we'll get new everything/everyone except for the autism consultant, then we'll have to break in a whole new team. It's all so frustrating.
UPDATE:
Heather,
{{{HUGS}}} I can feel your angst and frustration. Like caught between a rock and a hard place. I just wanted to let you know that you are not alone. Bureaucracy sucks. And don't you ever blame yourself! You are your son's best champion and you are doing the best you can.
