[quote=Anonymous]OP here. 23:09. I have consulted with a special ed attorney and she says I can certainly file a complaint. And, in fact, even a woman with VDOE who I spoke with, in a roundabout way essentially recommend I do so.

The issue at hand is failure to comply with IDEA regulations on transition planning and services. The challenge is that unfortunately this particular part of IDEA is not super clear cut. While there have been parents/families to prevail in this area there have also been many who haven't for this reason.

I've been reading myself silly on other cases, but none so far I have found in VA. In some cases far more was provided to the student than my son has received and the parent's prevailed, then there are others where the student received far less and the district prevailed. So bottom line it's a crap shoot.

23:26 Yes, I would definitely work with an attorney or advocate  to file a complaint as I know there are certain ways to go about it. I definitely have a lot of documentation, including obviously IEPs which speak for themselves, emails, etc. as well as recordings of the IEP mtgs.

The whole situation from A-Z is so beyond comprehension that I do not know how the school district can sit at the IEP table and keep a straight face!

I am so spent from all of this I feel ready to wave the white flag, emotionally, financially and otherwise. But to do so will be putting my son's future at great jeopardy.
