[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does your child have special needs?

I have a kid with severe inattentive ADHD who was harassed by other boys at school. I notified the teacher, and she addressed it. No teacher ever sent me messages about my kid getting lost or not following directions, though, maybe because they all knew he had an IEP…[/quote]

We have the initial Child Find meeting later this week. The teacher is not responsive to anything that happens during recess or specials. When I spoke to the principal on the phone last week he www in full support of the teacher handling things her preferred way. [/quote]

PP you replied to. That doesn't sound right, OP. Even if the teacher is not supervising at recess or during specials, she's still the point person to address bullying. Have you filed one of those bullying forms?  Have you done a private neuropsychological evaluation? The report, if it finds significant impairment, can bolster your request for an IEP.[/quote]

Yes, we have done all kinds of testing. We are new to MCPS and I provided copies of all tests and evaluations directly yo the principal when I register d my child in August. It wasn’t until a month later after I bagged them on email that they scheduled the Child Find meeting. She has ADHD, dyslexia and dysgraphia. At the open house before school started I let the homeroom teacher know if her diagnosis and provided a copy of the summary of the psychoed report.

The principal said the homeroom teacher is supposed to get filled in by the specials teacher when they hand off the kids but the homeroom teacher said she “doesn’t know anything that goes on in specials”. I don’t see how 2 teachers could have any kind of meaningful conversation with the incoming and outgoing students present. [/quote]
