Always wanting freebies, but denying others.....[/quote]

FCPS agreed these families were owed compensation.[/quote].

Lol! No, FCPS didn't. Some overworked case manager who didn't give a crap anymore agreed just to get the parents off her back. FCPS gave virtually no guidelines on this. [/quote]

FCPS didn't decide anything. They were forced to compensate parents by the Office of Civil Rights. FCPS didn't give a crap about the kids during the pandemic or now. They're just doing what they have to by law. No countywide guidance was given to case managers. I have two kids in different schools - one school was very fair with compensation, the other wasn't.

I pay $150/hour for my ASD kid's therapy. He was denied over 400 hours of services. I'm being compensated for less than 20% of that. It's not about gimmee, gimmee, gimmee. It's about parents fighting for their children that were denied federally mandated services. No one with a special needs kid would say something so heartless.

FCPS was giving your child 400 hours of SPED support? That seems unlikely.[/quote]

Yes, he has a severe disability and was out of school for over a year.

Even my child without a severe disability missed hundreds of hours. Many of those were support hours from an IA, but he still did not receive them. [/quote]

They are not reimbursing you “100%” bc the x hours of support provided by IA =\= x hours of support provided in a private therapy session.[/quote]

I never asked for, nor expected it to be reimbursed 100%. As I mentioned in a previous post one school offered about 20% which I thought was fair. The other offered me less than 5% of the 400+ hours. [/quote]

Your post was written in a very negative fashion you in no way implied that you thought 20% was fair. [/quote]
