I think I already posted this picture? there just are not enough pictures of Larry are there?
the 504 meeting went well
I had them take out more than i had them add LOL
can you believe they had it on their that when Larry is called on but can't get his thoughts out, the teacher should have him write out his thoughts...HUH? you are going to make the kid who hates to write, write when everyone else can just speak the answers? I don't think so.
anyway it is overall ok the only thing I forgot was the whole reacting to bullies thing not sure what they can do about that but...

a wild flower
I am busy lately with the kids all starting school.
and preparing for a 504 meeting with Larry's school.
it's very difficult for me, but I need to push aside my feelings that I was tricked and work with them. Last year when we had a meeting to determine if he needed and IEP they made me sign a paper saying that I agreed with their findings that he didn't need an IEP I asked them about the private testing e were having done, "what if they give him a diagnosis?" they told me they would take any test results into consideration and reevaluate his needs.....so when we got the diagnosis of Aspergers for him, I wrote asking the school to reconsider an IEP and got a call from the principal and the first thing she said was "well you signed the paper" needless to say I was not really nice to her and I still get angry thinking about it, but I need to put it aside.anger is not going to help me get what we need.
I do not care if they call it an IEP or a 504 what I care about is that the kid will be able to function in school on a level with his peers. That he is not going to be punished for being bullied, that he wont be alienated because of his disorder, that he be able to succeed, I cannot read that word without hearing Sacha Baron Cohen saying "there will be no sucking of seed going on here!" ROFL
So wish me luck, say a prayer, and on we go :)

First day of school for Moo
Preschool is so much fun :)
we had an uneventful first day of school for her, except we learned it takes a lot longer to get home from school....need to find a quicker way :)
she was all smiles on the way in, and all pouting on the way out.
she really likes her school :)
