[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]After multiple teachers broke laws and told us to have our middle schooler evaluated for ADHD, we did. When the results did indeed show ADHD everyone was happy to start the ball rolling.  They started with an IEP meeting, which was a waste of everyone's time, because they said he was on grade level and an IEP was not necessary and we'd move to a 504 meeting (the next month).  At that meeting, recommendations were made - chucking large assignments, sitting up front by teacher, allowed to move around when needed, extra time and more
How did multiple teachers break the law? [/quote]

NP. Teachers are not allowed to tell parents to get their child evaluated for ADHD. We can say things like, "Larlo frequently displays off-task behavior such as yelling or rolling on the floor during instructional time and is easily distracted by peers or himself. He needs frequent redirecting to keep his hands to himself" but we can't ask if the parents have considered an evaluation for ADHD or anything else.

If multiple teachers are making statements like the above, they're telling you something without saying it outright.[/quote]
