IEP Meetings, Mediation. BSEA Hearings Questions Dealing with IEP's Instand Access Treasure Chest. Too many resources to list. Article on legal issues, adhd, and education. Over the years I have learned two very important things.
School districts tend to close ranks when there has been a serious error on their part.
In the begining, when I had a problem with the school, I used to follow the chain of command. Since then I've learned that when there is a serious issue at hand, the principal protects the teacher, the superintendant protects the principal, the board protects the superintendant and so on down the line. I learned to stop taking it right away. While it is not appropriate in all instances, when necessary, I abandon the chain of command, particuarly if I know there will be no support from them and go straight to county and state agencies. Schools could care less about lawyers and lawsuits and unless there is potential for large sums of monies to be won for damages, lawyers could careless about you and your problems with the school district.
