I'm not giving up on her in the least, still keeping our goals whatever way it takes us to get there... thank you so much for all your posts. I can't tell you what it means to have support in this. My family, well let me tell you this when telling my grandma about this she said "well you will save on college money where she is concerned" and that was her reply.. yes I know.. I just ignore her for the most part. When I told her i was preg with my daughter she asked if I wanted help with the money to "take care of it". So much love there.
Education Law states that your child has the right to be in the least restrictive classroom - if they try to put her in special ed classes and you disagree - fight it - supreme court cases have sided with the parents here, and you should fight to keep her in the placement you feel is best even if that means your district has to pay for a one-on-one to provide extra support for your daughter.
