[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just read your other thread. PPs are correct that being on grade level or not below average enough are not sufficient reasons for denying an IEP. A child can also be eligible for an IEP even if there are no academic goals. As many of us know, the school system does not always do what it 'can' do. We hired a consulatant/advocate (instead of an attorney) when the LSC declined to evaluate our DC even though we had tons of private evaluations documenting delays and deficits. It makes a significant difference when you have someone with expertise in this area. Well worth the money. You can also, as a PP on the other thread noted, read up on it yourself - starting with Wrights Law. For me, I lacked confidence to do it so I 'purchased' my piece of mind. Hugs.[/quote] Attorneys cost money. Depending on the level of intervention needed, it may be a better course to spend the money on private therapy. [/quote]
