[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly op the school staff needs formal training.  Talk to an expert where you live and connect them to formal training.  Ask for proof that they attend.  Many kinds of classes require regular re-certification.[/quote]

+1. The fact that an assistant principal at public school asked a parent with a child with disabilities about resources and to recommend books is lame even if well meaning.  It shows that the AP and school has no/little support by their school system on following IDEA and are not capable of supporting kids with IEPs.

No idea about IDEA.

The custodian physically restraining kids at the request of staff is just the cherry on top.[/quote]

Agree.  The school has no idea what they are doing.  Even if you have a great and perfect IEP, I seriously doubt this school will be able to follow it and support your DC appropriately.[/quote]
You need to read OP's other thread  before commenting on this thread.  The assistant principal was new and the the principal, the special ed teacher and any other knowledgable staff were out, so the untrained AP made a bad choice. Just the AP needs to get up to speed.[/quote]
