[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A kid with an IEP for speech therapy or OT or something won't add significantly (if at all) to the techer's workload, and certainly won't take time away from your child.[/quote]
Kids with IEPs for speech are going to be the ones invited for in-person instruction.[/quote]

Wrong. They didn't rank IEPs. [/quote]
So a kid that can't say his "ks," and won't even be getting in-person speech therapy when schools go back in this limited form, can qualify for spot OVER a child with more significant learning impediments as reflected in his or her IEP? That's ridiculous--if that's how it was actually done. [/quote]

A child who could not say his "Ks" and only has speech will typically not have an IEP.  As they would not qualify for having a specific learning disability that impacted their ability to access the curriculum.    They might qualify for speech services - which may be separate.  [/quote]

You don’t know what you are talking about.  The category is IDEA is SPEECH/LANGUAGE IMPAIRMENT. you don’t need a learning disability to qualify under this category. It’s a speech only iep. [/quote]

My PK3er has an IEP for only speech articulation issues. It's not just his Ks, but it is entirely and only moderate articulation issues (a bunch of consonant sounds he should have by this age, including l and s).  Expressive and receptive both tested as "above average" by the early stages crew (somewhere around the 90%ile). In his case, they think it's largely a physical thing. He can't raise his tongue to the roof of his mouth. Anyway, just wanted to dispense with the fiction that articulation issues only can't get you an IEP.[/quote]
