for the meeting tomorrow.
Dont decline anything they offer. this will make you look like the bad guy if you go to due process or you want to get reimbursed for unilateral placement out of district.
Agree to listen to the program they develop, but stipulate it must be evidence based and designed and overseen by a mental health profession with experience in your dd's area of disability.
Just becasue you agree to let them plan doesnt mean you have to present you daughter to them without your psychiatric professional reviewing and approving their plan, but dont tell them that part yet.
Also will you be taping the meeting?
if not you need to take someone with you to take very close notes and send an email summary of what you think the meeting discussion and conclusions included. to the sped director and cc anyone else important including her boss and her bosses boss whoever they are.
It is all about documentation at this point. they have made some serious errors that could get you placement at the schools expense. it is important that you dont make any counter errors that allow them to blame you if you go to court. it is time to decide what you want from this school system and if they can provide it. if they cant, its time to get a strategy and collect the documentation to move on at their expense.
have you read from emotions to advocacy?
