[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]PP here, not a teacher, but mom of a child with a disability. You are fighting so hard to see a test, when the information you want, ways to help your child develop test taking strategies and better prepare, can be accomplished through other means. You're in the middle of a pissing contest with the school and your daughter is never going to win unless you end it and move on. Ask to talk with the teachers about your specific questions. They can help you understand without without your seeing the tests. You can accomplish this through a series of emails so you will not have to take even a minute off work. [quote]

I really disagree with this. The test and where she struggles provides very valuable information in managing disabilities and coming up with strategies to deal with this in the future. My DD's learning disability was identified when she was getting things wrong on unit tests that she understood.

You don't need the actual test to get good and even great feedback as to how she performs.  Examples from teachers will be just as good.  Again, as a parent of amSN middle schooler, I have never had to see the actual test to get this feedback.  Teachers have always been able to tell me with specificity what my child is doing and what is going wrong with the thinking process.  It really seems that you are in a pissing contest and should consider alternatives.  I say this because you reject all suggestions for gathering the information you want in favor of only seeing the test.  [/quote]
