[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just posted, but what any student can access is peer tutors of after school help or study hall help with math. Honors classes offer that to anyone. The teacher will certainly help some during classwork, but I think if I recall [b]there are issues with regard to the fact a solo teacher cannot guarantee a certain level of support to one student[/b] at the expense of all the other students. That is why there are team taught non-honors classes. In an ideal world there should be support, but there is already a regular and sped teacher shortage.[/quote] They have to provide it. Otherwise they're discriminating against someone simply for having a disability, which is illegal. [/quote] Bumping for the people in the back. Schools get away with this because parents don’t fight it. I think a lot of us worry that our kids will struggle keeping up but what makes it even more insulting is that there are lots of general population kids in the classes who can’t cut it. They deny students with disabilities the classes but kids who struggle academically do get in them. My kid with disabilities helped some of his classmates so much that a parent mentioned it to my spouse and I. My kid was denied access to an ap class and I requested an iep meeting to discuss this violation and included the doe letter. They knew they were in the wrong. [/quote]
