[quote=Anonymous]I have a SN kid with IEP at school and I am not worried at all about the bill. if I child is behind, just promoting the child to the next class is the worse disservice you can do to that child. when my child was in 1st grade and a little behind, I asked the school to keep her in 1st grade, and the school refused. we worked on a plan to help child, at home and at school, and the school did a great job with support (one on one or small group instructions for some time virtually every day and so on). child is now in 3rd grade and advanced in reading, at grade level in math (and we are still supporting her both at school and at home in math). just promoting her without the extra help would have been damaging to her, and she was just a little behind. the reality is that kids who are behind need extra help, not just been passed along to the next teacher untill they are so behind that they drop off. this is even more true for SN kids[/quote]
