Thanks all!!!! deacongirl - great book, I've read it and planning on skimming it over before the next meeting.

Polarbear - wish another school was an option, but for us it's not. The issues are so easily fixable, won't cost them any money or resources at all. They just don't want to deviate from their plan because it's their plan. I think I just need to go with #8 accept they won't change and stop trying to help them see my point of view.

Thankfully I live in a protected state so I have some due process. In the meantime, I've taken to doing what so many others have done; teach DS the subject at home so at least I know he's getting something he needs.
