Mediation Request redux submitted
Well, I broke down and submitted the mediation request. The school as you may remember requested mediation in our quest for an IEP for David that would allow him to return to public school in his home district. I had written a rebuttal to their request. Today I listed the 20 or so people on David’s team who need to be present at the meeting. With the change in key personnel at our Support Services group that the school utilizes, things should be interesting. Don’t know if they will continue to allow the elementary school principal to run rough shod over parents or not, but we will see. At any rate, we submitted the request. If for some reason Mediation goes the way the Facilitated meeting did, we will be in Due Process by Christmas. I don’t see the benefit in Mediation, but am willing to try. We want them
