good points about the ringers (my word...not theirs). i'd be mad too! i don't know what they will tell the other parents...i'll be sure to ask more about that bc i definitely don't want my son or my family to be the center of a schoolwide scandal! lol. i think it was a good accommodation in theory....but only for my kid. i see that now....see....i am so GLAD i asked here before going to the meeting. that could have gotten ugly! thank you for pointing that out. i think i am just so happy they are doing anything that it is hard for me to see the other side!
i wonder if it would be helpful to ask for him to attend a specials class- like library? with the older kids so he could still be with some academic peers at a time it would matter(reading is his highest area)...but without encroaching on the other childrens' educational rights....and have his pull out time be independent?? opinions on that?
