[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In our case, it wasn't so much the school as the personnel.  We're also at an nearly impossible to get into immersion charter and this grade was the first year DS even needed a behavioral chart.

The first few months were hell bc the Sped teacher came up with a behavioral chart that only made the behaviors worse.  It got so bad that the next step was a placement at a private SN school.  The school then called in a Functional behavioral analysis and got DS a behavioral plan as a final step before recommending private placement.  Lo and behold, ALL the behaviors are gone.

Maybe your child needs more than a basic behavior chart and his teachers need more support and training.  Rather than switching schools, try getting a FBA first.  Good luck![/quote]

I bet we are at that same immersion school...

My child response to the chart, they just simply refuse to do it.  It  "steals time away" from other kids.[/quote]

So they did an FBA and are refusing to follow the plan?  If I were you, call for an IEP meeting and put in the behavioral goals.  Ask for the school counselor to attend the IEP meeting and to provide support in the classroom.  Tell the Sp Ed coordinator that refusing to implement the plan is not acceptable (you can file a complaint with OSSE).

Following the behavioral chart should not "steal time away".  DS has a very short meeting  <5 minutes with the teacher who goes over the behavior chart in the morning and he picks out his reward when he meets his goal for the day.[/quote]
