The appeal must be dismissed. Petitioner objected to the resource room placement, and requested an impartial hearing. The hearing took place over three days between February 14 and April 5, 1990. In this appeal, petitioner alleges that respondent refused to conduct an annual review of her son's educational needs, improperly denied him admittance to a gifted program, harassed her and her son in retaliation for her filing a complaint with the Office of Civil Rights, refused to provide her with a parent-teacher conference, and failed to investigate alleged improper acts of certain district employees and is guilty of gross neglect in connection with her son.
Petitioner submits a reply to respondent's answer that raises new issues.
New issues set forth in petitioner's reply are not properly before me, therefore, and will not be considered. It must be noted that several of the issues raised by petitioner must be dismissed under the doctrine of res judicata , since they were raised and dismissed in previous appeals filed by petitioner. Those claims were reviewed and were found to be without merit. Respondent denies those allegations. The present appeal is taken pursuant to the provisions of Education Law 310.
