[quote=Anonymous]OP, I have a couple of observations.

First of all, if you tell us your DD's diagnosis we can better help you know what you can push for.  Unless it's something super-specific, no one will know.

Second, I feel like you are almost willfully NOT listening to what a lot of people are saying.  you gave teachers and administrators copies of your DD's evaluation but you are balking at the idea of a 504 and formal accommodations.  Why?

I agree that school-provided therapists are often not the best fit and we also went outside the school system and used private therapists for our child.  But this is different from pursing formal accommodations that your child clearly would benefit from.

Teaching her to stalk around and wave a copy of HIPAA regs isn't going to help her as a long-term strategy, and will probably make things worse for her.  Instead, why not take advantage of a system already in place to legally obtain for her the accommodations you clearly think she needs?[/quote]
