Hi Debbie!
debbie (ID=3) (Jul 24, 2001 8:03:06 PM)
How are you tonight?
LaurieC (ID=4) (Jul 24, 2001 8:03:25 PM)
Good.....not sure who all is here. I can't seem to get my screen to scroll down.
debbie (ID=3) (Jul 24, 2001 8:03:47 PM)
I think right now it is just you and me *L*
LaurieC (ID=4) (Jul 24, 2001 8:03:55 PM)
How's it going with Sarah?
debbie (ID=3) (Jul 24, 2001 8:04:23 PM)
Due process is set for two weeks from Friday
LaurieC (ID=4) (Jul 24, 2001 8:04:55 PM)
Oh....... yuk! What are they giving you a hard time on? Still that IEE issue?

Hang in there Debbie. Fight for her.
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:05:38 PM)
Hi debbie, Hi Laurie
LaurieC (ID=4) (Jul 24, 2001 8:05:43 PM)
Hi Carol.
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:05:51 PM)
How'd it go, debbie?
debbie (ID=3) (Jul 24, 2001 8:05:56 PM)
when they wrote to me and denied the eval. I wrote them back and told them they had two choices....do the eval or initiate due process
debbie (ID=3) (Jul 24, 2001 8:06:12 PM)
do they've chosed to initate due process

Hi all
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:06:34 PM)
You have a date! That is good, right?
LaurieC (ID=4) (Jul 24, 2001 8:06:35 PM)
Sorry to hear this Debbie. I know its emotionally draining.
debbie (ID=3) (Jul 24, 2001 8:06:53 PM)
You knwo what Laurie,,,It's ok..I actually feel good about it
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:06:57 PM)
Are you feeling any better, debbie?
debbie (ID=3) (Jul 24, 2001 8:07:12 PM)
I know I am doing what I need to do for my daughter. I am looking forward to this...
LaurieC (ID=4) (Jul 24, 2001 8:07:16 PM)
Good for you Debbie...... you'll come out a stronger person for it!
debbie (ID=3) (Jul 24, 2001 8:07:30 PM)
Been feeling better today,,but just ate dinner and it's not setting too well
LaurieC (ID=4) (Jul 24, 2001 8:07:56 PM)
Hi Lisa.
Lisa (ID=9) (Jul 24, 2001 8:07:57 PM)
Can I ask some advice?
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:07:58 PM)
That's too bad, especially after a good day.
debbie (ID=3) (Jul 24, 2001 8:07:59 PM)
To me I've already won. THis will go down as a formal complaint against the school
debbie (ID=3) (Jul 24, 2001 8:08:04 PM)
please do Lisa
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:08:08 PM)
Ask away, Lisa.
LaurieC (ID=4) (Jul 24, 2001 8:08:14 PM)
Shoot Lisa.
debbie (ID=3) (Jul 24, 2001 8:08:38 PM)
I"m not sticking around too long tonight.....I promise I"ll be back to my old self soon
Lisa (ID=9) (Jul 24, 2001 8:08:50 PM)
I am looking for some ideas to get my son organized from the start at school. He is forever loosing assignments and all sorts of things Any ideas?
LaurieC (ID=4) (Jul 24, 2001 8:09:16 PM)
My son's O skills are atrocious. Has he ever used an agenda?
debbie (ID=3) (Jul 24, 2001 8:09:24 PM)
I was just reading your post on the list
Lisa (ID=9) (Jul 24, 2001 8:09:42 PM)
What is an agenda? what do you mean.
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:09:43 PM)
I had that problem, too. We have a buddy system at school. A friend sees that she has the right books, assignments, etc. Now she has 3 kids who take turns helping her.
Lisa (ID=9) (Jul 24, 2001 8:10:22 PM)
What about important papers and things. He is not required to have a binder or anything he just has a folder.
LaurieC (ID=4) (Jul 24, 2001 8:10:23 PM)
My son was given an agenda starting in 2nd grade. Its a spiral notebook with several lines per day to write assignments..... it has a weeks worth of info on one page.
debbie (ID=3) (Jul 24, 2001 8:10:39 PM)
Lisa, on a side note, I"m still working on what information will be available after the conference. I am also currently working on a "handbook" on APD for parents in terms parents can understand.
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:10:55 PM)
I need help, tonight, too.
Lisa (ID=9) (Jul 24, 2001 8:11:04 PM)
Great idea thanks an agenda might help thanks
Lisa (ID=9) (Jul 24, 2001 8:11:20 PM)
I am done
LaurieC (ID=4) (Jul 24, 2001 8:11:41 PM)
My son uses the agenda plus brings home the "take home folder". The trick is getting him to write the assignment in the agenda each day and having the teacher check to make sure its done. Some parents write this into the IEP.
debbie (ID=3) (Jul 24, 2001 8:11:45 PM)
Lisa I hope youwill stay for a bit
Lisa (ID=9) (Jul 24, 2001 8:12:07 PM)
oh I will I just wanted to say I was done responding
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:12:31 PM)
We had the APD eval. last Wed. Mild APD issues is what she said. I haven't seen anything in writing but she promised we had the APD diagnosis. She added that it could be maturational and get "better". She also suggested Krystina has ADD and needs a neuro-psych. exam. Do you think it's necessary?
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:13:05 PM)
We already have an ADD diagnosis from the developmental center at Children's Hosp.
LaurieC (ID=4) (Jul 24, 2001 8:13:23 PM)
Lisa....... I also incent my child 25 cents per afternoon when he gets home from school and organizes his papers for homework time. He checks off a checklist on the refrigerator (one of those wipe off boards). I am careful not to incent doing the homework...... just organizing the homework and papers beforehand.

maybe elves.
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:15:26 PM)
Carol if a neuropsych was recommended I would do it
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:15:40 PM)
I heard it was very intense and tiring
LaurieC (ID=4) (Jul 24, 2001 8:15:50 PM)
Carol....... personally I think the neuropsch eval was WELL worth it. It gave me tremendous information on my son's strengths and weaknessess.
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:16:06 PM)
Do you think it was stressful for him?
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:16:06 PM)
but, do you want to know how to help your daughter>? Then I would do it
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:16:30 PM)
Did Sarah have one, too?
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:17:01 PM)
no..it was never recommded
LaurieC (ID=4) (Jul 24, 2001 8:17:14 PM)
Some of it was tiring .... true..... but they took breaks. What is stressful to one child may not be to another.... they are so individual. My son tries to please hard, so he is very cooperative.
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:18:00 PM)
That soundslike Sarah..she tries to please everyone
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:18:22 PM)
I'm wondering, and I know this sounds bad, I have insurance, it's all in-house doctors recommending each other and it's something I think has already been determined. I am kind of concerned these people might be .....I just can't say it.
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:18:28 PM)
Carol, I guess that is one of my frustrations..no one has even recommended she see an SLP......
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:18:48 PM)
Yep, here too.
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:19:03 PM)
Carol, I wouldn't think that way,,Iwould be happy they are looking for answers..
LaurieC (ID=4) (Jul 24, 2001 8:19:44 PM)
Too profit motivated? I try to minimize this by choosing outside professionals myself. Are you in an HMO? Insurance is so tricky.
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:19:47 PM)
Carol, may I ask a question off base? WHat time are you arriving in Orlando on Friday?
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:19:57 PM)
OK, so you think neuro-psych hasn't been covered with the 4 other testing days. 1 at school, 1 at the developmental center
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:20:16 PM)
Yes an HMO, We fly out of Boston at 8AM
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:20:30 PM)
WAIT, we fly into Orlando on Tuesday, not Friday
LaurieC (ID=4) (Jul 24, 2001 8:20:41 PM)
I think the vast majority are not in it just to get money..... they do it to help the child and give the parents some good information in order to best advocate for them.
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:21:07 PM)
Laurie, I agree
Lisa (ID=9) (Jul 24, 2001 8:21:13 PM)
My son had a neuro psych evaluation and it was very helpful to pinpoint the areas of weakness.
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:21:16 PM)
Thank you for the info, I think I will pursue it. Debbie, we're spending time at Universal, the Portofino
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:21:33 PM)
Carol, I know a few of us are going to get together on Friday
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:21:37 PM)
that's right, you told me
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:21:41 PM)
Where and when?
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:21:55 PM)
Krystie is dying to meet the kids
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:22:15 PM)
dont know yet,,will let you know..I"M goign to pick dr j up at the airport and then head to hotel..should be there about 12 or so i believe
Lisa (ID=9) (Jul 24, 2001 8:22:19 PM)
Debbie I could not make the conference in Orlando in the future is there anyway to get an audio of such conferences?
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:22:41 PM)
Lisa, I am still trying on this conference, I just dont have a definite answer yet
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:22:47 PM)
My husband wants to know, Kidding but serious, can it be in Las Vegas next year?
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:23:13 PM)
He's having a fit that I actually typed that!!!LOL
Lisa (ID=9) (Jul 24, 2001 8:23:24 PM)
That would be great for us who can not come
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:23:28 PM)
We want to hold more conferences in other locations, but not sure when or where yet,,have to get the first one outof the way
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:23:54 PM)
When do you guys start school?
Lisa (ID=9) (Jul 24, 2001 8:23:59 PM)
I hope the conferences continue because I would like to try to make the next one
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:24:07 PM)
Lisa, I am also working on putting together like a "handbook" on APD with articles contributed from some of the top professionals in the field.
LaurieC (ID=4) (Jul 24, 2001 8:24:17 PM)
I'd give anything to be able to come..... but can't. BTW Debbie..... Dr. Eva Saffer says hi.
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:24:19 PM)
Debbie, that would be so awesome
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:24:23 PM)
we start school 2 weeks from today on Aug 7
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:24:35 PM)
WOW, early, HAH?
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:24:38 PM)
Isnt she a sweetie Laurie? Did she remember who I was?
LaurieC (ID=4) (Jul 24, 2001 8:24:55 PM)
Oh yes...... she remembered you immediately.
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:25:21 PM)
I need to email her. She was really helpful to me when I went to her clinic in SC for the conference by dr Ferre.
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:25:49 PM)
it's early to start school, but this way the entire first semester is over before christmas
Lisa (ID=9) (Jul 24, 2001 8:25:50 PM)
Debbie, any information I can get my hands on would be great
LaurieC (ID=4) (Jul 24, 2001 8:26:14 PM)
We start 8/15....... Dylan will be starting 3rd. I am dreading it. Dr. Saffer was incredibly easy to work with and she spent an enormous amount of time with me explaining things.
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:26:36 PM)
Lisa I promise I'll keep you informed! I was hoping to have the handbook done by the conference, but at this point can not promise...so much has happened lately I'm behind
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:26:52 PM)
I fly home Sunday and start Monday. Butterflies starting already.
Lisa (ID=9) (Jul 24, 2001 8:26:57 PM)
My son does not start until Sept 6 or 7 what ever is the Weds. We have a while to go.
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:27:02 PM)
Laurie, that is what professionals should do!!
LaurieC (ID=4) (Jul 24, 2001 8:27:33 PM)
Carol and Lisa....... have your children been dx'd APD? Debbie....... I agree!
Lisa (ID=9) (Jul 24, 2001 8:27:41 PM)
Yes
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:27:46 PM)
Last Wed.
Lisa (ID=9) (Jul 24, 2001 8:28:17 PM)
My son's school teachers are terrible about following through with his modifications though
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:28:20 PM)
kind of reluctantly, it seemed to me.
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:28:27 PM)
Lisa, will you remind me what area of the country you are in?
Lisa (ID=9) (Jul 24, 2001 8:28:32 PM)
New JErsey
Lisa (ID=9) (Jul 24, 2001 8:29:02 PM)
I am looking into moving if I can find a state that services our kind of children better in the public school system.
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:29:02 PM)
are you any where near Toms River or Kean University?
Lisa (ID=9) (Jul 24, 2001 8:29:13 PM)
I am 45 mins south of Toms River
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:29:17 PM)
Lisa, here it's school to school
Lisa (ID=9) (Jul 24, 2001 8:29:27 PM)
Where are YOu Carol?
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:29:32 PM)
Mass
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:29:40 PM)
There is an awesome professor at Kean University who specializes in APD
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:29:59 PM)
He writes reports in terms for parents...they are wonderful
michelle (ID=11) (Jul 24, 2001 8:30:18 PM)
(This user has entered CAPD: From the Heart) (IP = 65.14.212.96)
Lisa (ID=9) (Jul 24, 2001 8:30:18 PM)
Debbie where can I get his reports
LaurieC (ID=4) (Jul 24, 2001 8:30:19 PM)
For the longest time I struggled with the overlapping symptoms of ADD and APD. Thats when I finally broke down and brought in the neuropsych to sort it out. I too have trouble with teachers following through on mods. I think that is a problem for everyone. You fight hard to get the IEP and services, then they are half-heartedly implemented!
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:30:34 PM)
When you got the apd diagnosis, at that meeting did you see papers? Testing anything?
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:30:55 PM)
he is on the referral program for the NCAPD. His name is Alan Gertner. He also has a website on APD. www.apdfacts.com
michelle (ID=11) (Jul 24, 2001 8:31:35 PM)
Ok I know I am late but what book are you talking about
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:31:54 PM)
hi Michelle, I didnt see you sneak in
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:32:05 PM)
We only have the section 504 so no IEP so no services. This audiologist (complained) said she has mild APD but probably ADD as well and she might outgrow the APD.
michelle (ID=11) (Jul 24, 2001 8:32:22 PM)
I finally have settled in and have my computer back up and running
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:32:24 PM)
Not happy, can you tell
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:32:30 PM)
MIchelle we are talking about a professor at Kean Univeristy in NJ who writes great reports for parents in parent terms
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:32:38 PM)
Hi Michelle, I missed your entrance too, sorry
Lisa (ID=9) (Jul 24, 2001 8:32:45 PM)
Hi
LaurieC (ID=4) (Jul 24, 2001 8:32:58 PM)
Hi Michelle.
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:33:05 PM)
Carol, it could be easier to get services for ADD than APD
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:33:06 PM)
My computer has been having a nervous breakdown this week
Lisa (ID=9) (Jul 24, 2001 8:33:07 PM)
Carol I did not have an iep until my son had his neuro psych
Lisa (ID=9) (Jul 24, 2001 8:33:27 PM)
I mean his neuro psych eval
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:33:28 PM)
Will definitely get it, then.
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:33:33 PM)
I"m still on the 504 and fighting for the IEP
michelle (ID=11) (Jul 24, 2001 8:33:47 PM)
Hi all. Carol my daughter has ADD and APD also.
Lisa (ID=9) (Jul 24, 2001 8:33:49 PM)
Debbie, why won't they give your son and IEP
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:34:08 PM)
And I spent so much time "teaching" them about APD!!!!!
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:34:18 PM)
they are telling me how remarkably well my daughter is doing and how great SArah is compensating for her APD
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:34:39 PM)
The must have the same book up here Debbie, it's what I hear, too,.
Lisa (ID=9) (Jul 24, 2001 8:34:39 PM)
Doe she have any other problems you can use to get the iep
michelle (ID=11) (Jul 24, 2001 8:34:44 PM)
I am concerned because we just left a great school where everybody understood. Now I have to reeducate
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:35:03 PM)
Lisa, we have a due process hearing scheduled for Friday Aug 10
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:35:06 PM)
That stinks, Michelle, I spent a whole year doing it
Lisa (ID=9) (Jul 24, 2001 8:35:09 PM)
Good luck
LaurieC (ID=4) (Jul 24, 2001 8:35:26 PM)
Debbie....... I didn't realize Sarah wasn't on an IEP. There are many more procedural safeguards with the IEP versus the 504. ADD qualifies for an IEP (IDEA) under the "other health impaired" section I thought. Does Sarah have any language or speech issues that might help you get the IEP?
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:35:57 PM)
According to me or the school? *LOL*
michelle (ID=11) (Jul 24, 2001 8:36:08 PM)
LaurieC I was getting ready to ask the same question
michelle (ID=11) (Jul 24, 2001 8:36:16 PM)
Both
LaurieC (ID=4) (Jul 24, 2001 8:36:27 PM)
According to the "data"....... the reports, etc.
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:36:32 PM)
Krystie's problem is math. No math services so no services needed. But in 4th grade we start MCAS. When she takes them next year, if she does poorly on the math part, she stays back.
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:36:36 PM)
the school still thinks I suffer from SPS (stupid parent syndrome)........she has trouble in reading and language usuage.
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:37:08 PM)
Not enough trouble for them, though?
michelle (ID=11) (Jul 24, 2001 8:37:10 PM)
Samonne has testing this year too. I am worried.
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:37:25 PM)
on a scale of 1 to 5 on the FCAT standard tests,1 being low and 5 being high..sarah scored a 1
Lisa (ID=9) (Jul 24, 2001 8:37:26 PM)
Debbie, can't you get an slp to dx with a language disorder?
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:37:54 PM)
So you have great reason and should convince the judge, right?
michelle (ID=11) (Jul 24, 2001 8:37:56 PM)
Did they do any language developmental tests
LaurieC (ID=4) (Jul 24, 2001 8:38:18 PM)
Has Sarah had any psychoeducational testing by an outside professional? How about language testing by the SLP?
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:38:24 PM)
Lisa, that is the route I am probably going to have to take, but I want the school to do a thorough eval..i've paid before and dont feel like they took the reports serious...so this time they will pay\
Lisa (ID=9) (Jul 24, 2001 8:38:40 PM)
Debbie how exactly does due process work ?
michelle (ID=11) (Jul 24, 2001 8:38:47 PM)
The speech pathologist that dx Samonne put down CAPD put categorized it as a language delay

Hi there
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:39:48 PM)
I did a complete psychoeducational testing 1 1/2 years ago..none of the recommendations were followed.
Lisa (ID=9) (Jul 24, 2001 8:40:00 PM)
How come?
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:40:18 PM)
they were going to do some other things,,,it's such a long story
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:40:44 PM)
let's say this time i wont back down......this time we will go all the way
Lisa (ID=9) (Jul 24, 2001 8:40:50 PM)
I have never been to due process when does this become necessary?
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:40:50 PM)
You have the section 504 with the recommendations on it, not followed so next is due process and the school didn't know this?
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:40:51 PM)
even if that includes court
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:41:37 PM)
we are goign to due process over the request for the independent eval....we are going under the IEP (IDEA) because they tested for addittional services

pretty good..but im goign to be sneaking otu in a few
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:42:59 PM)
Debbie, just wondering if your school deals with many special needs students. Ours has 3 classes of them. Varying in degrees of needs.
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:43:17 PM)
Carol I live in a huge district.......
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:43:19 PM)
They seem to have a real good handle on what they can and can't do.
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:43:29 PM)
So they should know, too
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:43:45 PM)
We have alot of problems in our district in my opinion
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:44:05 PM)
This is one of three schools with special needs, out of 7
LaurieC (ID=4) (Jul 24, 2001 8:44:18 PM)
Debbie...... is it documented in writing anywhere that your provided outside evals and they refused to implement the recommendations?
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:44:23 PM)
But is there a special needs dept. in the school.
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:44:34 PM)
yep Carol...there sure is
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:44:53 PM)
So they know, they told you this is their first due process, right?
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:44:55 PM)
they have all testing...........i document everything .
Dorien (ID=13) (Jul 24, 2001 8:45:21 PM)
Debbie can you get a 504
Lisa (ID=9) (Jul 24, 2001 8:45:32 PM)
Let me ask something please. If my sons teachers do not follow through on his mods what can I do if the child study team does nothing about the teacher?
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:45:46 PM)
carol i dont know what the secretary is talking aobut...maybe their first one this week *L*....you can get the entire history on the internet of the due process hearnings
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:46:00 PM)
we are on a 504 Dorien
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:46:05 PM)
That's more what I would think, Debbie
Dorien (ID=13) (Jul 24, 2001 8:46:36 PM)
And the teachers are not following it
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:46:38 PM)
Dorien, I am asking for language and reading help and they say no because she is on a 504,,only if on IEP
LaurieC (ID=4) (Jul 24, 2001 8:47:01 PM)
You know how wrightslaw.com cousels parents to take a sheet of paper to all meetings with one column showing requested services and one column showing "denied" or "agreed"........ the school then has to offer a reason for denial. Maybe you could use something like that Debbie where the paper trail is documented well..... it will speed up due process.
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:47:04 PM)
Lisa, there is a grievance procedure you can go through
Dorien (ID=13) (Jul 24, 2001 8:47:30 PM)
If the doctor agrees that this will help they have to follow his/her suggestions
Carol (ID=8) (Jul 24, 2001 8:47:33 PM)
I've got to go do the bedtime thing. Take care all and will chat soon.
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:47:37 PM)
well due process has been sped up..think it's the last letter i sent *L*
Dorien (ID=13) (Jul 24, 2001 8:47:55 PM)
You can request a hearing

dorien, the due process hearing is on friday aug 10
Lisa (ID=9) (Jul 24, 2001 8:48:13 PM)
debbie Whee would I file a grievance and with who?
LaurieC (ID=4) (Jul 24, 2001 8:48:21 PM)
What, Debbie, are they saying is needed to qualify Sarah for the IEP versus the 504? That sounds like ludicrous logic they are using to deny services!
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:48:23 PM)
made the schoo linitiate it
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:48:51 PM)
oops...i cant type..im getting really tired *L*
Dorien (ID=13) (Jul 24, 2001 8:49:04 PM)
I would have as our school does not like to pay for them
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:49:38 PM)
if on a 504, go to the principal first and put grievances in writing....then up school chain of command or OCRE
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:49:40 PM)
OCR
Dorien (ID=13) (Jul 24, 2001 8:49:41 PM)
but our school is very cheep
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:49:54 PM)
my school is way past cheap...
Lisa (ID=9) (Jul 24, 2001 8:49:59 PM)
Any one in an area where the school does not fight about every little thing?
Dorien (ID=13) (Jul 24, 2001 8:50:26 PM)
I try to push them when ever I can
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:50:39 PM)

debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:51:22 PM)
Ladies, Im about to fall asleep,,I think the meds are kicking in

Okay sorry to keep you so long
LaurieC (ID=4) (Jul 24, 2001 8:51:49 PM)
Lisa...... actually I am in a district that hasn't been too bad to work with, but they definately try to slant everything in their favor..... I did outside testing for this reason. It is an absolute art to work with a school and still keep an amicable relationship. It is very hard.
Dorien (ID=13) (Jul 24, 2001 8:52:09 PM)
Have a good night Debbie
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:52:10 PM)

Lisa (ID=9) (Jul 24, 2001 8:52:29 PM)
How do you do it when the school does not want to give services.
debbie (ID=10) (Jul 24, 2001 8:52:33 PM)

Individual states may have slightly different procedures--generally, there's a form or format. All you are required to do is id the school district, nature of non-compliance and sign.

Lisa it takes a parent to push and fight for the kids education
Lisa (ID=9) (Jul 24, 2001 9:02:12 PM)
I guess Dorien than it doesnt matter where you are and what attitude the school has
eaa (ID=12) (Jul 24, 2001 9:02:29 PM)
Well, only my younger daughter attends public school. I think overall they are better than private schools, but still not that great. Florida doesn't fund education or special needs that well. We don't have state income tax.
steph (ID=15) (Jul 24, 2001 9:03:11 PM)
so does anyone know what age we can test for processing?
Lisa (ID=9) (Jul 24, 2001 9:03:20 PM)

Mrs. Doster is applying for a big research grant at UCF to try NN on "normal" kids to see how much they improve.
Lisa (ID=9) (Jul 24, 2001 9:09:15 PM)
I am going to insist they let my son do it as often as he needs. He is goign to someone privately that can help with the school
Lisa (ID=9) (Jul 24, 2001 9:09:35 PM)
So Brain Gym and NN are the same?
eaa (ID=12) (Jul 24, 2001 9:09:58 PM)
No, NN is unique that it incorporates rhythm, timing, speech, hearing, auditory memory.
Lisa (ID=9) (Jul 24, 2001 9:10:21 PM)
Eaa I will have to look on the website because now I am confused
eaa (ID=12) (Jul 24, 2001 9:10:25 PM)
But it is similar to brain gym in that it incorporates body organization and motor skills
Lisa (ID=9) (Jul 24, 2001 9:10:39 PM)
So is it brain gym and metronome combined?
eaa (ID=12) (Jul 24, 2001 9:10:52 PM)
Lisa, if you want, e-mail me privately and I'll give you my phone number
jjtnallen (ID=17) (Jul 24, 2001 9:10:58 PM)
My daughter has recently been diagnosed with CAPD, however her school does not recognize CAPD. Any suggestions?
Lisa (ID=9) (Jul 24, 2001 9:11:02 PM)
I would apreciate it
eaa (ID=12) (Jul 24, 2001 9:11:24 PM)
Interactive Metronome is different, but it does use timing. Without so much speech/hearing.

Look into a 504 or getting an IEP

htnallen, print out stuff from the web and give it to them.
eaa (ID=12) (Jul 24, 2001 9:12:15 PM)
there are lots of good links on this site --with lots of good background info
eaa (ID=12) (Jul 24, 2001 9:12:32 PM)
Our school barely recognized it either, but I educated them.

My children are the first to be recognized with it in our school
jjtnallen (ID=17) (Jul 24, 2001 9:13:48 PM)
Thanks for the info. I guess I will have to introduce them to it, because we are not going away and neither is the CAPD. I live in Texas and can not attend the conference in Orlando...sure would be nice though!
Dorien (ID=16) (Jul 24, 2001 9:14:46 PM)

How many children do you have
jjtnallen (ID=17) (Jul 24, 2001 9:16:13 PM)
One - Amanda
Dorien (ID=16) (Jul 24, 2001 9:16:22 PM)
I have 4
Dorien (ID=16) (Jul 24, 2001 9:16:36 PM)
I know how hardf
jjtnallen (ID=17) (Jul 24, 2001 9:16:56 PM)
Wow! That's 3 more than I could handle.
Dorien (ID=16) (Jul 24, 2001 9:17:03 PM)
I know is is not easy
Dorien (ID=16) (Jul 24, 2001 9:17:32 PM)
I may have 4 but work with 10 or more
jjtnallen (ID=17) (Jul 24, 2001 9:18:09 PM)
How old are they, and which one has CAPD? Also, how old was he/she when you knew they CAPD?
Dorien (ID=16) (Jul 24, 2001 9:19:13 PM)
Jen is 12, Tricia is going to be 11 and she and Mike age 6 have CAPD James is going on 10
Dorien (ID=16) (Jul 24, 2001 9:20:04 PM)
I have to tell you that I do not know what I would do without all of them
jjtnallen (ID=17) (Jul 24, 2001 9:20:56 PM)
Very challenging, and rewarding. How has the school helped, and are they in public school?
Dorien (ID=16) (Jul 24, 2001 9:21:01 PM)
Tricia was about 8 and Mike I have to have re tested when he is 8
Dorien (ID=16) (Jul 24, 2001 9:21:54 PM)
They have given Tricia a 504 as they know that I will not let them put her in SP ED

As for Mike the school has agreed to make some mod in class and even try an FM unit and if it helps they will get him one
jjtnallen (ID=17) (Jul 24, 2001 9:23:22 PM)
Amanda just turned 8 as well. But, looking back on everything, I am amazed no one caught it sooner. At first we thought she was ADD, but quickly ruled that out. Then my neighbor approached me about CAPD, and there was our answer. Now for the hard part.
Dorien (ID=16) (Jul 24, 2001 9:24:22 PM)
I had to keep looking as I did not even know that CAPD
jjtnallen (ID=17) (Jul 24, 2001 9:24:41 PM)
What is 504? As you can see this is all VERY new to me! I am just taking in as much info as I can get. The more I look into all of this, I'm not real sure I don't have it either, at least trates.
Dorien (ID=16) (Jul 24, 2001 9:25:54 PM)
A 504 will make the school provide a child with aids as long as they have an RX and do not need SE
jjtnallen (ID=17) (Jul 24, 2001 9:26:55 PM)
Does your daughter use the FM radio...I just don't want Amanda to get teased or singled out. Oh, I hate run, but I have a softball game to go to- it's only 8:30 here. Thanks again for the info and I hope to chat again next time.

judi (ID=27) (Jul 24, 2001 10:02:58 PM)
Bummer--are you on the list too? It gets different, easier some ways--harder others
lisa29 (ID=26) (Jul 24, 2001 10:03:51 PM)
Does this site help and when are the best times?yes, i fear as she gets older that people will see more that she has a harder time and they tend to not listen>
judi (ID=27) (Jul 24, 2001 10:05:29 PM)
I think it's a good one--I've been on and off for several years. Our son seems to do better now with advocating and socializing with peers--maturity helps, teachers who are on the ball, etc
