I am hoping that it will be in place for next year. I tried to kick this up to a higher level earlier in the year. It resulted in a massive number of people at a meeting and nobody taking any action. Everyone wanted to talk more about her IQ than her LD diagnosis. It didn't result in any action from the school, just more suggestions about things that I could do at home.
I finally sat down with the teacher one-on-one mid-year and asked for her help. She volunteered to collect her own "data." When I asked to see the "data" before the end of the year, the school asked to schedule the meeting. If this is unproductive, I will try to kick it up a level again in the fall.
DD will be in 3rd grade in the fall. I recently checked out an "alternative gifted" charter school. I think that it would be perfect for her but the waiting list is huge even though they have only been open since the fall. Their director suggested finding other 2e parents and starting my own charter like this. (LOL) I haven't really looked at anything else. I talked to DD about homeschooling but she doesn't want to leave her friends. I'm not ready to completely give up on our current situation. I am concerned that as the writing component grows she won't be able to keep pace with the gt program -- hence the request for accommodations.
