[quote=Anonymous]There are multiple false, negative, and "blanket" statements posted.

"How do they make progress seen every other week?"- All students have hours/month and frequency based on individualized need per the IEP. If your child has minimal needs, then minimal services would be proposed. Or perhaps dismissal was proposed and the parent is refusing dismissal.

"Virtual services aren't effective."  That is a false statement. Telehealth is advancing in health care and education. MANY/MOST students can benefit from virtual services. There is more visual feedback in a virtual session. Although it is not best for all students, virtual therapy services are certainly effective.

Also, there is a national shortage of special education teachers and SLPS.  Telehealth services help to address this problem. One reason for this staff shortage is because of the negative, hostile, entitled, ungrateful, disrespectful parents.  Professionals don't want to work in the schools because parents think they are entitled to treat them like **&YP(*O and have unrealistic expectations.

Stop bashing on FCPS and speech therapists.  Start showing some respect for educated professionals who choose to dedicate their profession to helping your children, for low pay, high stress, and little respect. STOP BEING SO AWFUL. More professionals would be willing to work in the schools if it was not for parents and people like you.[/quote]
