[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our elementary school child is at a private school in DC. The school is trying to push us out- our child has been diagnosed with ADHD this school year. We are doing everything we can as quickly as we can to stabilize our child but medication takes time to work. We understand we signed away a lot of our rights going private but does anyone have a recommendation of a lawyer who can help us? At the very least, we want to document all of the ways the school has failed to partner with us. [/quote] I’m a teacher at a local private. In my experience, we’ve never tried to push out any student, even with an adhd diagnosis (which is unfortunately not that rare), unless they had behavioral issues that negatively impacted other children: showing agressive behavior, even sometimes bullying, lack of emotional regulation, etc. If what you claim is true and the school is resorting to pushing your family out, they clearly have documented how your child’s behavior. As someone said above, schools don’t do anything they haven’t discussed with their lawyer either. [/quote]
