HELP MEEEEEEEEE

[Guest guest]

Okay, I got what I wanted, and now I have to prepare.

Since I'm not all together with it right now, I need some reminders.

I have a meeting with:

-Special Ed resource teacher (head of sped and aides)

-principal

-classroom teacher

-school board sped liaison

on Wednesday.

Community Living advocate is coming by on Monday morning.

What to address? My biggest concern is the communication book - or lack of it.

Beyond that, I'm at a loss for what to bring up BECAUSE I KNOW NOTHING OF WHAT

THEY ARE DOING! They are apparently revising the IEP and my input is scheduled

for October 10, a week from Wednesday.

I'm in a bit of a panic...

They change the IEP without you being there? I must be there for everything.

I don't allow meetings that change anything without me being there or I won't

even sign.

My meeting is Monday and I'm still looking for support for getting an aide in

the classroom. This is one meeting, I am not prepared for. I am so very

nervous.

For some reason Jacquie, I'm on the downswing too. The sun is shining here

though. It may just be all the added stress. I'm snappy though too but maybe

that will help at the meeting on Monday. LOL

I'll be looking up IEP stuff all day. I'll send any links on to you if they

look good.

Jacquie, I am sure you can go into a whole spiel with just the fact that you

have no clue as to what is happening at school.

After that, you can go into the whole monologue about what the purpose of

the IEP is if they don't abide by it.

has also made some great stride recently. I think you could add onto

the goals and objectives also, as well as reconsidering other stuff on the

former IEP.

I am 150% confident that in any case, you will address everything that needs

to be addressed.

Jacquie -

I just got up and haven't had coffee yet, but I want you to know I'm

going to reply to your post later..... I figure I have all weeked, so

I'm going to pull out some of my docs.

oh, BTW, don't know about anybody else, but I've NEVER been at an IEP

meeting where the principal was present.

That's exactly what I'm doing right now, Tina! 8-)

This one is from ontario, but it's an excellent description of autism written

FOR educators...since, as far as I can tell, my people know shit about autism, I

printed it and am taking it with. It might be too basic for your needs (but it

IS 16 pages), but if you can't use it, maybe somebody else can!

Wow. Chris's principal has always been there. I like her alot. She

is very accessable and trys hard to work with what she has - like the

student cadets as aids and the afterschool program for him for

homework and social structure. I feel fortunate. There is so much

we don't have but I do have staff that care.

My kids principals were present at almost every meeting AND IEP that we've

held since elementary school, not the Early On though.
