[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree with pp. You need to request an FBA. The school should be looking at ways to work on this behavior. I'm stunned that they are making you come to the school to deal with this behavior problem. [/quote]

+1. I don't know why they can't put him into the harness/car seat on the bus. The bus driver should also be allowed to wait. A run like that in the middle of the day is not super time sensitive.[/quote]

OP Here: I spoke to transportation and they said that if he showed any resistance whatsoever boarding the bus (and that "resistance" would be defined by them), that they would refuse to take him.  They also said the teachers were not allowed to pick him up and put him on the bus.  It puts is in an extremely difficult situation.  I looked up the statute for transporting disabled children, and it appears they are required by law to do so, so I feel like someone is shirking their responsibility here.[/quote]

Transportation often oversteps their bounds and makes up rules/regulations like this.

Ask them to put this in writing and to cite the regulations that state that resistance makes it impossible to transport your child, and that they can define resistance, and that teachers are not allowed to assist students onto the bus.  None of this can possibly be the case.

Ask for an IEP meeting.  [/quote]
