[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a mother of a child in PK3 with an IEP, please take the advice of posters that provided you with information. Thankful that I stumbled upon this thread, I will be sure to not have full confidence in staff to do what the IEP states and question the services they are providing.[/quote] 
question the availability of the staff to do what they are obligated to do. One of the problems @ core is that dc doesn’t staff resource teachers by hours- but by caseload. I currently have 15 kids- each with an average 4 hours inside the classroom per day @ outside hours. Do the math- it’s just not possible. [/quote]

This right here is 100% the problem.  It’s not the teachers not doing their jobs.  It’s the lack of staffing. DCPS knows this and doesn’t care.  Every PD teacher bring up this problem.  It’s the central problem throughout the district. [/quote]

It's not just DCPS. I teach in PG. I had 27 on my caseload last year in grades 9-12. They were supposed to get an hour in reading and math, but English 9 and 10 were at the same time as Pre-Calculus and Algebra II. English 11 and 12 were at the same time as Algebra I and Geometry. If I was lucky, I could do 15 minutes in a room. Once you factor in the IEP meetings, standardized tests, and initial/re-evals...I rarely ever saw my students. [/quote]
