[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Off on PTO today so able to catch up a bit. Went on the news last night…for the third time. Hoping MCPS leadership wises up soon. This situation is UNACCEPTABLE.

Good for you, OP. Thank you for fighting for all the kids.[/quote]

+1000 Thank you for speaking up. Special Education has been treated as an afterthought by MCPS. If summer school is in person for general ed students then MCPS should have ESY as in person as well.

For parents who don’t have deep pockets for a lawyer, file a State Complaint with MSDE and submit the MCPS letter as documentation.  MCPS has the responsibility to hire and provide service providers. They have a legal responsibility to honor the IEP, not circumvent the IEP with little notice for parents to seek Due Process or alternative arrangements. $19 per hour is a joke and isn’t based on the individual needs of the child. Clearly a violation that should be redressed and a State Compliant is free to file.[/quote]
