Nan, the new principal was at the meeting. I did not have anyone with me, and am looking into that as well. The last time this happened (for her CF) I just completely let it drop..I was intimidated by the whole process at the time. I had thought talking with the principal and laying it all out prior to the meeting would help, but to be honest the school psych took it over and everyone else (except me) just kind of nodded their heads in agreement to everything he said. I came out of it feeling very railroaded. I'm hoping the email will help. I do plan on copying in the psych's supervisor. I feel as though they send him in to shoot down and double talk any parent with a disabled child who also happens to be a high achiever, and that frustrates me to no end.
