[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]At least I didn't start crying until after I left the meeting. [/b] There were a number of things that went wrong.  The school team radically changed what was agreed to at our last meeting (this was a re-convene) and I received no prior notice of the change.  I (and my advocate) were blindsided.  We were in agreement on what was needed at our last meeting (and it was documented in the notes section of the draft IEP) and we were reconvening to iron out details.  I went into the meeting really excited to hear how they were going to implement what we had agreed upon.  Instead, they changed their minds and are proposing something completely different.   The short story is they don't believe the data (which was only communicated to us orally at this meeting) supports the previous recommendation and the new proposal is supported by the data. My advocate and I are in complete disagreement with the school team.  I can't believe the bait and switch.  I can't believe they really think this is appropriate for him.  I believe FCPS admin came down on them and dictated the change.  I gotta pull myself together before the kids come home.  No way I could go back to work after that meeting.  I feel crushed (and now I've started crying again).
