Meeting done and referral for evaluation was denied since the classroom teachers are not seeing this writing issue and she certainly is not performing below grade level expectations. No IEP, no 504. They recommended working on her perfectionism - apparently her frustration about writing is just in her head and not truly visible at school. Frustrations with writing for homework were apparently caused by her being tired after the school day (according to school). NOthing can be done as far as IEP/ 504 unless she works below grade level - and she would have to work below 3rd grade level instead of 4th since 3rd is where she would belong age-wise...
Luckily school is implementing more computer work anyway and this week she was able to complete homework online and submit straight to the teacher online.
Ugh, I'm sorry. Are you going to request an independent evaluation?
