[quote=Anonymous]Even though schools show you drafts before the meeting, it's usually only days before the meeting. And, the school tells you that "we'll talk about it at the meeting." Then, at the meeting, the teacher is usually very quiet while their boss takes over leading the meeting. The administrator has only seen the child in very limited observations and usually under-recommends services. The IEP "team" treated me like a nuisance to the implementation of the plan that they all had previously agreed upon in the pre-meeting I wasn't invited to. I participated in this dog and pony show for pre-k4 and K then left public school. While we struggle to pay for private, I felt like my child's self-esteem was suffering and he was hating school bc he didn't have the appropriate supports. The school was dismissive of all my evidence and arguments. I hope in my heart that Governor Hogan passes school choice in MD. If the schools and teachers are doing such a great job, they shouldn't be threatened by giving families the choice between public or private with their tax dollars.[/quote]
