cricket,
that is FRAPE you are speaking of,
free appropriate education...
i have wondered if maybe they are in violation of this simply b/c he came into this school also under the SASapplication- and the school is receiving $ for his SAS placement there, but they offer no actual SAS. they refuse to meet his needs.
i would say that is in violation...
I'm sorry if this was addressed later (I'm just popping in briefly and didn't read the rest of the replies). However, if they are receiving SAS $ for your child, I'd think that you've got good cause to hold their feet to the fire (i.e. - threaten them) if they refuse to sign the paperwork verifying that he passed the gifted testing for your choice application to another school.
