[quote=Anonymous]I'm sorry that you feel that it is utterly ridiculous, but it is true. Accommodations are tools and techniques to show that the student is learning the same thing as everyone else. They not ways to reduce the amount a student must learn. At least at top high schools in MoCo, we don't ever do "busy work" in honors/ AP science so the idea of dropping material is something that would never be in the discussion. Everything that is done is in class is part of the curriculum. It will be worked on via formative assessments and tested with summative assessments. As PP stated, it is true that if you can't meet the rigors of the honors or AP classes or if you need the work load to be diminished then you must drop down a level. OP, I'm sorry you are going through all of this. I see this from both ends because I have an SN child and I work with them in my classes (including kids on HHT). I hope your daughter's condition betters over time, but for now this is your new normal. It will take everyone time to adjust, but healing and anxiety reduction need to be priority number one.
