That leaves the door open if you decide to pursue any outside eval or anything of that sort. We have signed that we didn't agree in the past and not necessarily done anything with it but at least the option is there. Sendin calming vibes your way and hoping for a good outcome.

I expect ultimately that DS will be turned down because his IQ and achievement tests are high even though we have done our best to prove adverse effect on academic performance and extraordinary measures taken at home to support DS. One problem I ran into in the past was the percentage of students who scored 130+ on their IQ tests in the same school. The school had decided only to take the top 10% and have the teachers differentiate with higher learning objectives in the regular classroom. I hope everything goes well.

Our BIP meeting last Monday turned out to be almost entirely pointless. i was even told that they could do an IEP without really doing an IEP and they seemed to be kicking back even on a 504. I think I've spent about 8 hours this year in meetings - possibly more. I think I'm homeschooling. The BIP is mostyl entirely ineffective and merely covered the 2 points that we had already established on DS6's re-entry after suspension. The BIP for the bus didn't work at all. You can't force a child to read or wear head phones. I'm depressed. By Joy, Joy Joy for your better luck !!!
