[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Having all those meetings is a colossal waste
of time.
"Compensatory time" can't happen with no staff.
Can they use ESSR money and just cut families checks to pay for private services?[/quote]

I seriously think they should have been doing this all along. If money isn’t an issue/isn’t as much of an issue, parents can go to therapists that are out of network or don’t accept insurance and get around many of the wait list issues. There were speech therapists, for example, seeing kids in person as early as August/September 2020. Doing a bunch of IEP meetings now isn’t going to solve the fact that kids are badly behind after being out of school for so long in the first place.

People in MCPS have said they were given the run around about compensatory services for months, then finally offered comp services which were basically “an hour a week and the only time we can accommodate you is Saturday morning so if you have other stuff going on on the weekends, tough titty.” I feel like that’s what FCPS is going to do and then shrug their shoulders and say “we did all we could but no one wanted what we were so generously offering!”[/quote]

Exactly.  Just like blamed parents when Tutor.com was a flop.  [/quote]
