[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Keep it! I'd give them the benefit of the doubt that they are solution-focused and trying to help.  It sounds like the school is proactive with the sensory room and the school counselor reaching out to provide supports without needing an IEP or 504 plan. [b] It's a good sign that they're not just throwing up their hands until things get REALLY bad [/b]or you get an IEP requiring them to provide these services.

That said, I am a little confused about the sequence.  My understanding is that an FBA requires data gathering -- did they do that already, or is this meeting just the kick-off for that?

I don't think you need to bring anyone with you, unless you think you'll have trouble remembering everything that was said (a possibility).  Can your spouse/child's parent come?[/quote]

OP again:  Things have gotten worse from the beginning of the year.  Before school started I reached out to the counselor to inquire about a social skills group and see if he could meet with my son individually.  It's taken 4 months of increasingly difficult behavior before the school has really stepped in.  On my end I've been working on getting him outside support and testing but the school initially was pretty lax and reasoned that he was fine last year.  I'm happy that they are now taking steps to address the issues.  I've been shuttling him around to various specialists (naturopath, allergist, OT, psychologist) so much I feel like my brain is melting.  My husband travels extensively and hasn't been a ton of help on this.  Thanks for everyone's advice, I just want to make sure I'm making good decisions.  [/quote]
