[quote=Anonymous]We all come from different perspectives and have different goals.  I think we have in common that we try to advocate for our kids.  I am not trying to opt out of PE but just reduce time in PE to address other important PE-related goals.  One size fits all doesn't work with kids with special needs and there are different ways to approach challenges and different ways to ask for flexibility.  This is one of them.

If a school can decide that a child meets the requirements for PE by taking musical theater (which I think is a wacky but creative solution) then I think it's reasonable to ask for what *I* think would work to help my child get through the day and meet goals that I know MCPS (and I) thinks are important (PE).  Perhaps they can propose a different solution.

Seeking alternative paths to a goal does not lead to drop out.  Do SPED math pull-outs lead to dropping out or not coping in the real world?  No.   I just need to know who to talk to. But I think I can figure it out.  Just thought someone who had done this would chime in.  [/quote]
