Guest guest Posted October 18, 2006 Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 Quick question, but very important. We had Bobby's PPT (Amends IEP) meeting today and we wanted to pull him out of kindergarten and to basically homeschool him for this year while he catches up onlistening skills because of his late diagnosis. We never used the word homeschooling and said we were going to send him to a private preschool. Their argument was that if we took him out of public school that they are no longer required by law, to provide services (OT, PT, even AV). Ellen Gill (AV therapist who was with us) said that was an interpretation of the law, that not every school district refuses to provide OT and PT if the kid is taken out of school. She later said we could go to due process, but that it would take so long it may not be worth it. , any thoughts? ? I'm not looking for legal advice, I just want to know if Ellen is right, did the district's lawyer find a way to interpret the law in their favor, because she knew of our intentions ahead of time and I'm sure she contacted the region's lawyer.
