[quote=Anonymous]It's great you got past the first hurdle. Yup, sometimes the school does say no your child doesn't qualify during the evaluation process so you're in a good place right now if you're at the IEP development phase. I think there's usually a tension between the number of hours the parents believe their child needs and the number the school is willing to provide. I think no one is technically supposed to add up the numbers until after the goals are written but we've found the schools push back on whole areas of need so they won't have to provide the services. For instance, you may have a private evaluation that says your child has speech delays and the school may have found some also. But when you get to the IEP meeting you're hoping for 30 minutes 1x a week and the school might argue it's not really impacting DC's education so they say no goals for speech which means no service hours for speech.
