MY SON HAD AN IEP IN 3RD GRADE GETTING READY FOR TH 4TH, WE DETERMINED HE HAS ADHD/ODD COMBINED. I SENT HIM TO HIS GRANDFATHERS FOR THE 4TH GRADE BECAUSE GRAMPA WORKED FROM HOME AND COULD HELP GET MY SON ON TRACK. MY SON WENT FROM STRAIGHT F’S TO HONOR ROLL IN ONE YEAR..WELL MY SON CAME HOME AND WE WENT TO SEE THE SCHOOL HE WOULD BE GOING TO FOR 5TH GRADE AND TOOK ALL HIS IEP REPORTS AND SPOKE WITH THE GUIDANCE COUNCELOR, SHE ASSURED ME THE SCHOOL WOULD UPDATE AND FOLLOW HIS IEP. MY SON STARTED STRUGGLING REALLY BAD AGAIN SO ONE DAY I CALLED THE SCHOOL TO FIND OUT WHAT WAS GOING ON ABOUT THE REEVALUATION AND SHE INFORMED ME THEY ALREADY DID IT AND THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH HIM HE JUST NEEDED GOOD DISCIPLINE AT HOME. 2 WEEKS LATER HE GOT SUSPENED FROM SCHOOL FOR 10 DAYS FOR A POSSIBLE CONCELED WEAPON (HE CUT OUT THE MIDDLE OF HIS PAPERBACK DICTIONARY AND PUT HIS SAFETY SCHOOL APPROVED SCISSORS INSIDE). THE GUIDENCE COUNCELOR THEN TOLD ME MY SON WAS A DANGER TO HIMSELF AND OTHERS AND NEEDED SOME SERIOUS PSYCIATRIC HELP. WELL HE MADE IT TO THE 6TH GRADE AND HES JUST BARLEY HANGING IN THERE. WHAT CAN I DO ABOUT THESE SCHOOLS, HE WAS DOING FINE WITH HIS PLAN THEN THIS SCHOOL SAYS THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG, THEN HE GETS INTROUBLE AND THEY WANT TO CALL HIM A FUTER AX MURDER(BUT THERES NOTHING WRONG)

You probably also want to contact your states Office of Civil Rights.
Re: THE SCHOOL REEVALUATED MY SONS IEP WITHOUT MY KNOWING
I find it quite telling that he did well at Grandma and Grandpa’s
I would follow the schools advice if I were you and I would have his grandparents raise him.
Go to the Parent Ld board here and ask this question, also go to www.schwablearning.org/message_boards/index.asp? and ask your question. If there is an IEP the school has to follow it. Also go to www.Wrightslaw.com and read up on your child’s rights.
