[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, if the IeP requires it the school must provide, but the school will re-evaluate a child who has high functioning autism and whose IEP says they need a 1:1 aid. And once the re-eval is in, the new IEP won’t require the 1:1. In general it’s a crappy system but in this case it seems ok because does your child with high functioning autism need 1:1? If so, that’s not high functioning.[/quote]

Virginia is a parent consent state. Once a 1:1 is written into an IEP, the school can only re-evaluate and remove it if the parent consents by signing the new IEP. Also, I have seen students with level one autism who require 1:1 support in the general education setting. If this parent does move to LCPS, they may want to consult with an attorney to understand their rights.

There are no 1:1 aides in LCPS though. If her insurance can provide one , it’s possible LCPS will allow it but the county itself does not facilitate 1:1 support. So that might have to trigger an amendment to the IEP. [/quote]
