[quote=Anonymous]DONT SIGN ANYTHING. if you disagree fight it.  For example if your is kiddo  has ASD that is category that qualifies for services point blank.

Story time: my now 6 yr 1st grader was in DC charter school for PK3 that was supposedly one of the better ones for special ed. the therapists were great, the folks running the special ed department not so much. at the end of PK3 when we already were accepted at another school for Pk4, they said he didnt qualify for services any more and didnt qualify for an IEP anymore. I strongly disagreed. I didnt sign anything. the following year in PK4 he has services they changed a little but still similar services for behavior and more social supports. Come kindergarden everything changed and he had a very hard year. We got a full neuropsych that year, got him on ADHD meds modified his services a few times. Now for 1st grade have made even more services due to challenges in K. Hes doing great and has more services that wouldn't have be even thought of in PK3. Some kids may not struggle academically but may still have behavior or social challenges, they still qualify for services.

the next few years will change greatly and is going to be very hard to get services back. if you feel your kiddo need services fight for them. they will evolve over the next few years, if then it looks like your kiddo doesnt need them, consider it then. do not let them try to push you from an iep to a 504 or similar.
