[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is the school doing to take away his services? Can you ask for an IEP meeting?[/quote] Most recently, all of his current teachers checked off that my child does not have attentional problems on the teacher reports. However, they put comments that my child's socializing/talking to others is problematic, he makes careless errors, he forgets homework assignments, etc. These are all symptoms of inattention. By saying he no longer has ADHD (like there is some miraculous cure to a disorder) and that the teachers check the magic boxes of no attentional issues, MCPS made a cursory decision that my child does not have a disability and therefore does not qualify for an IEP or 504 even though they had data to the contrary.[/quote]
