[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have 2-3 kids in my ES class who are kicked up an hour early every day. Every day. They miss math every day. Their parents don’t seem to care. I’ve asked for if there was an issue with someone picking them up on time after school and they all said they didn’t want to wait in the car pool line. They asked me to send home their math for homework. Unbelievable. [/quote]

Mind your own business.  I can help my kid in math but they weren't getting the therapy they needed so it was my only option as that was the only time slot.  We did not tell the school or teaher why because they sucked and would not honor the IEP they wrote or worked with us.[/quote]

I'd LOVE to mind my business but the amount of time spent in data meetings discussing strategies to catch these kids up is absurd. I have to document the missed skills for each kids, write goals for each missed skill, find the time to catch them up that won't impact their classmates (and isn't during recess, lunch, or resource classes) and then document each session. After that, I have to assess these missed skills and re-evaluate every few weeks. Lather, rinse, repeat.

For a student like yours, we would be able to hold a 504 meeting to determine if he was eligible for a 504 plan. I have had kids who have had to miss school due to various therapies. [/quote]
