[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The only other alternative is for the spcial educator to get a sub for some part of the testing time.  It puts the IEP in compliance but your child will not be better off for it.  When there is a special ed sub, they are being pulled out of their classroom for little benefit.  Subs are limited in education and training and I promise you they are better off with it.  [/quote]

No, the alternative is to write the IEP correctly in a way that doesn't fake hours by claiming OP's child is getting service hours just by sitting in PARCC.[/quote]

An IEP is to help a student access the curriculum.  Providing accommodations on assessments is helping the child access the curriculum.  Does it suck?  Yea.  Just as much as it suck for every child taking PARCC and every staff member that has to administer it.  But in reality, they are receiving supports that are outline on their IEP.  The IEP is allowing them to be testing in a small group, reduced distractions, etc.  They ARE receiving supports and services from their IEP during that time.  Those services may not be geared directly towards the goals on their IEP but they are helping them access the same assessment that everyone else is taking.  [/quote]
