[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I highly recommend an advocate also. My child has multiple learning disabilities and the school said they “ don’t see it” bc she has good grades. She is 5 years behind in math computation skills, 5. I would never expect the school to do anything to benefit your child, they will deny as long as they can and offer the most limited services only if they have to. It really is that bad. [/quote]

I know this is the story you are telling yourself, but something is missing here.

Dont do this, I am well aware of our situation, this is exactly what was said at the screening meeting. You know parents of kids with unique needs have enough going on, we  don t need this type of response.   We have an advocate and attorney now and have a whopping 30 minutes per week for services in her iep. My advice to the OP stands, take an advocate, you never know what type of responses you will receive from the school and you are better prepared with an advocate.[/quote]

At the meeting the school said, "your child is five years behind in math, and has multiple disabilities but we 'don't see it'?"

No.

I know you paid someone a lot of money to tell you your kid has multiple learning disabilites. I've seen plenty of neuropsychs for basically normal kids who get a low average subtest score and then have, 'dysgraphia," or "dyscalculia." I know your child isn't performing to your expectations.

But 5 years behind, with multiple disabilites and the school is denying services because they've all dedicated their lives to "never doing anything to benefit your child?" No.[/quote]
