    Yet another attempt to get DS6 some decent challenge in math in the classroom. I end up feeling about one-inch tall in these meetings with a conference room full of administrators (not too far off from my actual height but I'm sure many of you know about this feeling grin)

    Wish me luck... Oh, and I'll be thinking of you Crisc - our meetings are at about the same time. Mine's at 2:00.

    I hope my pre-meeting chant will work this time.
    Must not interrupt if they say stupid stuff...

    Yes, good luck Jool. Do you know what you are asking for? Or looking for the school to come up with something?

    good luck Jool! Maybe it will help to take notes every time you want to say something when they are saying something infuriating.

    Thanks for all of your support. Good idea about the note taking SP Girl. 'Neato, I'll be "suggesting" online learning such as EPGY in place of classroom math. This is a followup to the vague GIEP they came up with in Dec. Since DS likes to learn independently, I think this *may* be the most viable solution, at least for the rest of the year. I'm also going to ask about a plan to help DS's organization as well.
