[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The burden should not be placed on people who are perhaps lower SES, working multiple jobs, or don't speak English very well to attain appropriate educational placement for their kids.  If the statistics show that a much larger percentage of Asian or white parents with kids scoring between 120 and 131 submit parent referrals than black or Hispanic parents with kids in the same score range, then the referral system needs to be fixed.

How?  There are many information meetings with translation available.  At some point personal responsibility needs to come into play.  [/quote]

Many times those meetings are at times that are hard for parents who work to attend. I am lucky that I have a job that is flexible enough that I can take off to attend meetings and the like but not every parent can do that. Or parents don’t have enough understand ing of the system to know why they should attend a meeting or why a program like AAP is important for their child.
