[quote=Anonymous]Years ago when DC was a third grader at CMI (DC is now a 12th grader) we encountered similar attitudes. We immediately consulted with an attorney about suing the school for reasonable accommodations. That attorney suggested it was easier to put DC in DCPS and then pursue litigation against DCPS if DC failed to thrive because DCPS was not following the IEP. So we did that—pulled DC from CMI, hired an educational advocate, withdrew all outside private supports and put kid in DCPS with plan to sue. Well our neighborhood DCPS did a great job with DC, even providing small group orton gillingham based reading instruction several days a week (DC diagnosed with dyslexia and ADHD). No lawsuit needed. So to echo a poster above, get your kid out of CMI and consider your local public. [/quote]
