[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a case manager. Let me tell you. Schools are short staffed. Students are certainly not getting all of their services. However, in many cases IEPs are carried over mostly, and services rarely reduced. Students that are getting new IEPs will have greater scrutiny in terms of assigning students. Kids that aren’t getting there services looks really bad in principle, but they probably don’t need everything that is assigned to them. Teachers are definitely not explicitly told to reduce service. Schools fear lawsuits- a formal statement is pretty bad. Do schools turn a blind eye….yes. [/quote] This is fair and the reality we're seeing. Everyone knows students are not receiving the services but no one is doing anything about it. In a lot of cases it's due to staffing and just overload but we have also seen resource teachers take advantage of the situation to not do very much. [/quote]
