We got the same bogus reasons for why DD did not qualify for any services (but at least they did an evaluation--the eval was a piece of crap but at least they went through the motions.) Basically it boiled down to the fact that she was being given advanced work, and you don't give special services to a student who is operating above grade level in terms of reading and math (because that's what the state tests). If she is unfocused or asleep 75 percent of time in class it doesn't matter as long as she can pass the tests. We got out of the toxic place, and current school states they are writing an IEP--I'll believe it when I see it.
