Last week we finally had the planning meeting for Logan's therapies to be taken over by the school system. (very delayed but that is another story all together)
I had the law book in hand and showed them that it does say that he is entitled to in home services. They told me that only if he was in danger or there was a similar concern. Hello.... my son is the size of an 18 month old at the age of 3!!! (mind you the evaluation summaries they gave me showed that two of the evaluators were concerned about his health and safety)
Well, today I spoke to the Statewide Parents Advocacy Network and they told me that the school lied. The law does not say a thing about danger being a requirement. It says only that it is an option to get in home services.
In the morning I
am going to call the school board and tell them of my new knowledge. I will ask them if they want to do this the easy way or if I have to have the state board of education drag them in front of a judge.
Gggrrrr why do they have to lie and make things so hard? I would appreciate if people could pray that this be resolved quickly and easily rather than via the courts.
Thank you so much.
