[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m very sorry about this. The school should have told you, but of course the teachers didn’t, because the principal would have yelled at them for doing so. You need to file a state complaint immediately. You also need to contact your region superintendent and the director of special education, Michelle Boyd, about this. Cc the principal. You can get their emails by putting first name, dot, last name @fcps.edu for any staff member. You need to ask for money to pay for a summer tutor who is licensed in special education. This is happening everywhere in the county. If you have a child who should be receiving services in pull-out form, you should find out what the schedule is, and ask your child if they are happening. I can guarantee they aren’t during testing season. Push-in services aren’t happening now with testing either, because so many people ate pulled to help with testing. Parents need to use their collective power to push back against so much testing, demand accountability for special ed services, insist that the government fully fund special education, and lobby for more behavioral support for struggling students so that special education teachers can teach and behavioral supports can be provided by other staff who are trained for that. [/quote] FYI, participation in state mandated testing is considered an absence from a session and they are not made up. Services cannot conceivably occur during that time since no students are receiving instruction during this time. [/quote]
