[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I found this online.

What was interesting to me was that the amount was so high (I am in two different special ed parents group--my kid is 18 and has cycled through a lot of schools--and no one who was getting financial reimbursement was getting anywhere near this much and one of the groups is parents of very, very impaired dc).

Almost always these findings go in favor of the school system. Its really unusual for FCPS to lose like this! I can't overstate how unusual this ruling is.

I haven't heard of any other parens being asked to sign a Non Disclosure Agreement-this was really strange to me.

My kid has had an IEP since age 3 and is severely disabled. I would say 90% of her teachers have been wonderful people trying to do impossible jobs usually with little support. We have dealt with Gatehouse staff many times on many different issues and they are 100% of the time, unbelievably slow and frankly incompetent. I don't know where they find these people.

So October 2023---> January 2024 was illegally slow response rate by FCPS. But parents on here are just getting reimbursed based on meetings held in spring of 2023? 
That's crazy.[/quote]

In my experience 90 percent of SN parents are just trying to get thru the day and have low expectations of fcps admin. Hence all the parents on here who just accepted being shorted reimbursements.

10 percent are squeaky wheels like the parent who filed a complaint. There is no relationship between the extent of the child's disability and the squeakiness of the wheel. I don't know any parents who asked for mileage to/from their childs therapist, for example.
