[quote=Anonymous]15:40 here.  You might take a look at the Wrights Law site.  They teach law at William & Mary and specialize in special ed law http://www.wrightslaw.com/.  I find the site somewhat difficult to navigate but I can always find what I'm looking for eventually (especially if I don't get distracted by something and get off my search).  They've addressed the 'the school refuses to provide my child with services/accomodations because he's working at/above grade level' many times http://www.wrightslaw.com/blog/?p=694 and  http://www.wrightslaw.com/info/elig.add.grades.htm and http://www.wrightslaw.com/info/elig.sld.osep.felton.htm are a few of the places.  I highly encourage you to read what the law says (as does Wrights Law).  It may sound intimidating but it's really not.  You really shoudl have a good grounding.  I live in FCPS and two of my kids have IEPs.  We were going through the IEP process at the same time for both of them (they're 3 years apart) but the younger one was coming in through Infant Toddler and the older one was already in school.  I was amazed at the differing level of skill/expertise amount the FCPS staff at the very same school.  It really helped to have a basis in the law so I could follow and contribute to the discussion.  If you have additional questions, please post back.  A lot of readers on this forum have some really good knowledge and experience about this sort of thing.  Good luck.[/quote]
