[quote=Anonymous]"Because they work for the school district not you and have probably budgets and a target number of service hours they are not supposed to exceed across all students.

That isn't supposed to be how it works under the law, but in reality, that's the way it goes much of the time."

Of course, this is EXACTLY how the law is supposed to work.

Their job is to balance your DC's needs with ALL the other special ed cases in the school/cluster/system.

Every year they ask for more money.  They can't ask for all they want to because no school board or elected official would get reelected if they raised taxes that much.

All government jobs are to spread what money and resources they have to where it will do the most good.  They mostly get it right if people communicate with them about twice as often as they are required to.

-Parent of student with 9 years of IEP experience who thought like the OP for years but now that DC is doing well in college, understands that DC needed a little help over MANY years and that even LOTS of help over those years would not have fixed DC.
