[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]ESY transportation is a joke. My dd qualified and the bus ride there was 1.5 hours. She was also a first grader and the bus picked her up first, then picked up two middle school children, took them to a middle school, then dropped her off at an elementary school. If your child does need it, I really suggest declining transportation and driving them.[/quote]

We had a similar situation with our first grader as well when the system insisted our zip code fell into an ESY program being offered an hour away (even though there was one not 10 minutes from  my house -- so much for "individual" programming, right?). I fought it all the way up the chain of command and ended up getting him placed at the ESY center that was 10 minutesfrom our house.  I think they had just had enough of my nagging and showing them that I would show they violated his IEP when they did not consider his individual case in making a placement decision.  I did agree to drive him, but they reimbursed for that!

My point is you can object and demand and hopefully get result.  Hoping they don't make the same assinine decisions on placements this year. [/quote]
