[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]15:12 Back.  While I was writing my long email about the process for an IEP in FCPS, someone commented that we PPs have detrmined that OP is in a private school.  If so, OP, you have to change schools immediately.  You have no legal rights.  Private schools do not have to comply with the Individuals with Disability Act, IDEA, or ADA.  Period.  Some privates have their own management plans for dealing with kids with "issues" but they are not called IEPs or 504s.  [b]If you are private you need to switch immediately.[/b]  I would never submit my daughter to something like a panel.  Your problem will be a referral from the principal - who, most likely - will say she has been accused of cheating.  It will also be difficult to switch mid-year, but if you can do it, do it immediately.  
[b]Or immediately place her in public, but get her out of that school.  If you can afford it, hire a lawyer to write out an agreement that you will leave the school and say nothing  ill about the school being negligent or engaging in malfeasance and, in turn, the school can say nothing ill about either you or daughter.  If you place  her in public, you won't need that confidentiality agreement - but you will need to immediately start the process for an IEP.[/b]

HIPPA is inapplicable to this situation.  FERPA protects students records - that's why attemptsby the birthers  to get Obama's records from college and law school have failed.  His records are protected by FERPA.  I don't see how that applies here either.

[b]If private, you need to pull her immediately.[/b]  You could even homeschool for the rest of the year.  Don't make her go through this madness.[/quote]

GREAT advice here![/quote]

Well, thank you!  It's so rare that anyone thanks someone else on this site.   . . .  . I just hope I didn't waste all that time typing on a troll . . . . .[/quote]
