at my child's IEP meeting, no one have any clue about 2E, or about any issues facing gifted kids. My child was denied services, we are contesting. The school lacks a behavioural specialist at the moment and is non-compliant in that respect.
My child has a hard time organizing thoughts to write, or speak, and is the lowest performing writer in the class (though very high scores in verbal). He sits down and looks at the paper, but can't get the thoughts down.

Shouldnt the school have someone I can turn to? I feel like I am facing such a bias-- and ignorance-- against gifted kids.

THey have all the information yet would let this kid slip through the cracks. Any suggestion??? I can go through all the steps outlined re. the sped process. Never expected that I would meet such resistance.
