Received letter today:
The district refuses to conduct an initial special education evaluation.
This option is rejected due to the determination by the district that an evaluation is not warranted and a disability is not suspected. The student is currently functioning within expected levels as documented in classroom performance and in district assessment data.
The letter further references DS has a current 504 to provide accommodations in the educational setting, and that *some* of NP's recommendations were considered: namely, continuation of 504 and providing access to intellectual peers and appropriately challenging curriculum.
I guess any help DS receives will be on my time and dime.
Ugh.
