[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some of my students have IQs in the 70s and low 80s yet they don’t qualify for IEPs even though they struggle. [/quote]

Because that's not how IEPs work. They must show a processing deficit or a discrepancy in a specific area. [/quote]

Oh I know! Every year, these same students are brought up to SST but there is nothing we can do for them. They are not making the expected progress because they are working to their potential. Most of them seem slow to very slow. I feel bad for them. It often runs in their families especially along the female/male divide. We just got testing done for a student and her IQ scores were just as low as her sister. Their brother seems to have an average IQ because he learns at an average rate. The two girls don't qualify for an IEP though. They are working to their potential but God forbid anyone brings that up at these meetings. Why test them if we aren't going to acknowledge the elephant in the room. They just aren't that bright. They are very nice kids though so I'll take them over some entitled, rude students in my class who are smarter.[/quote]

I think I know the same family. They will be okay, mainly because nice and hardworking will keep a job that rude and smart loses.[/quote]
