[quote=Anonymous]After my special ed. child (speech and language impaired plus dyslexia) was in the special ed cluster for two years, I had to fight to have his IEP dropped. He got no help and the room was so chaotic with all the behavior problems. The behavior problems were from some special ed. students but also some general ed. students who were put in the class because someone thought they would get more help since there was a full time aide in the class and the sped. teacher would pop in occasionally.

Meanwhile my child didn't get the services he needed. He was supposed to get small group instruction in reading in the back of the room with the special ed. teacher or aide but rarely ever did because they were dealing with so many behavior issues.

Once we exited him from special ed. he was in a non-special ed class with an amazing teacher. It was such a good year. He got better intervention from a reading teacher instead of a special ed. teacher/aide. His teacher actually cared if he made progress. I think once he qualified for sped it was like his 1st and 2nd grade teachers felt like he wasn't really their student and not accountable for him learning anything. [/quote]
