[quote=Anonymous]I’m a special ed teacher. First I would want to know what interventions your teacher has tried with your daughter. Usually the process starts with teachers meeting for an intervention plan for students who are behind where they provide targeted interventions (know. As tier 2 or tier 3 depending on the intervention provided). The teacher has to show they’ve tried using interventions prior to moving forward with testing. What has been done to help your daughter close the deficits she is demonstrating?
The special education process is long- you can also refer her for testing yourself but it’s a months long process. If you request a student study meeting now and authorize testing it’s likely you will not meet to determine eligibility until around late February or early March and then the IEP
Is developed 30 days after that. Once your daughter is found eligibile that eligibility stays with her for 3 years unless the school
Request to retest earlier because she is working on grade level without need for support (which you’d have to authorize). Every 3 years students are retested to determine continued eligibility for services.
But first, what is being done st school to try and bring your daughter up to grade level?[/quote]
