[quote=Anonymous][[b]quote=Anonymous]The family has to show that the disability has an "educational impact" which is hard to prove if he is not failing his classes. The school will almost always push back when it comes to public funding for SN school. She's doing the right thing by hiring an attorney.[/quote][/b] The school district will definitely push back. They don't want to pay for any private placements. Only the most severely disabled get them and usually the County will direct where it will send the money so has significant say as to where your child will go. If the County can prove in any way (including home tutoring) that they can educate your child, in any location (sent by bus), they will not pay for a private placement. Lawyering up is the only way to go, unfortunately, and there's no guarantee that you will get a private placement at the end.[/quote]
