Thanks - I didn't even notice the special needs forum.

I get emails from his teacher, complaining that my son has not turned in this and that..and she would even tell me she would even pull some of her students during lunch time just to complete the task at hand. Having her said that, I was thinking that she was over-loading her students with a lot of task to do at school then. So being in AAP is not all that good I think if you get a teacher who overworks you. Sometimes I do regret sending him to full time AAP because he sometimes just falls asleep after getting off from the bus. Just pray you go to a teacher that is good and at the same time does not treat you as such.

I agree with you - my son goes to SEES and the pressure on them (full time AAP) is ridiculous. His teacher 'says' that they don't get graded on the homework (well whether it has been turned in on time). He is ADHD so he actually DOES his homework and then forgets to turn it in. She does not work with us in regards to that - writes negative comments....just have had issues with this one teacher this entire school year. Hoping we get a better one next year. So back to the ADHD thing - if he forgets something or is late turning in - she will hold him back from recess or lunch...she lets him choose. What the heck kind of choice is that? The kids NEED a break and lunch and recess are the only times they have away from academics...ridiculous.
