[quote=Anonymous]Sending in a therapist to work with your child means that the child is missing class. The county is obligated to teach the curriculum and a student cannot weekly miss class to work on other skills. You can take your child out of school for a weekly appointment because it is your right as a parent to excuse them from school. The school doesn't have to support this in their own building. THe school cannot excuse your child from the curriculum. Additionally, the school doesn't want to be responsible for another adult in the building who is not an employer, but who will be working directly with students. And where would this person work? Schools already have no space. There is also the issue of privacy for other students.Private schools can chose to do this because they can also have parents sign a contract stating who is responsible for what if something goes wrong.[/quote]
