[quote=Anonymous]Where can I change my sons record of his first language? I ask because when we registered him for kindergarten we were strongly advice to say that our primary language in the home was English because otherwise he would be pulled out of the classroom for ESL services. We were told that he would miss important instruction time and it would be better if we just worked with him at home on his English acquisition. The issue is that he can probably benefit from those ESL services. Also, he performed poorly on the I ready in the language arts section in part, because English is not his first language. I’m afraid the committee took the score into account when making their decision for AAP services. The fact that English is not his primary language is part of the story as to why he did not perform in a higher, percentile, so I would like the committee to have the full picture. Yes, I can add it in the cover letter as part of my submission, but I think it’s worth documenting properly. also now that I am been in the school system I understand the value of having him receive the services he should’ve been getting from the beginning. I don’t necessarily want to go through the school, I would preferred to have it , on his school record. So my question is who do I need to contact in central office ensure that his record accurately reflects his the primary language of our home. [/quote]
