[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Just to clarify, schools don't tend to give IEPs to kids who are doing well in school (this is based on teacher reports, not grades). We've asked. We're already in the process of requesting the IEP but not holding our breaths. We're not going to redshirt DC.[/quote]

I just had an IEP meeting for my rising K with similar stuff going on. I would not let the school off the hook. A social emotional delay can be enough for an IEP. My son doesn’t have academic goals but he has communication, social emotional, and speech goals and is getting a decent amount of support. We are in FCPS. Have you done any early intervention or gotten services as a preschooler?[/quote]

It's a long story and not one I'm willing to share here, sorry.[/quote]

Ha okay. You don’t need to share but I’m trying to help you. I asked if you’ve gotten services before because if he is already deemed for special ed services, you are over a hurdle. If I were you, I would try to get him an IEP.

It sounds like he might be your oldest child in school. For my oldest, we went to every “popsicles on the playground” for new kids event we could, tried to meet other rising Ks, and really talked up kinder and her new routine. [/quote]
