[quote=Anonymous]We're in Arlington and things aren't as bad as these posts but...1) even when you have testing and even when they agree the testing's accurate, they still insist on redoing with theirs -- which takes time (talk about a waste of money). 2) DS is in middle school and has dyscalculia - system has no explanation for how DS is supposed to access Math (Choose Present Grade) when he's 3-4 years behind; 3) system abhors talk of private placements ("We're out of time now and we're in disagreement about placement") Overall, our experience has been good and - again, in our experience - at the school level, people are professional, usually recognize the issues and want to do something. At the Central Office level, however, they frankly are pretty horrible and, for a school system that loves to say how wonderful it is, want to do as little as the law requires to "educate" kids with disabilities, rather than trying to be at the cutting edge. It is pretty awful.[/quote]
