Shirley: I have a child in kindergarten enrolled in a Magnet School that requires you to make a certain grade in conduct to remain in the school after Christmas break. He is very smart but has been clinically diagnosed with ADHD, ODD, Separation Anxiety & Adjustment Disorder. We are getting him on tract but we have used all of our c time figuring it out. Because of it being a Magnet School do we have any recourse for getting back some of the time we use during the testing period. Can we in any way legally request a time extension or can they do as they wish because of the fact that they are a Magnet school?
May I suggest you push for a Functional Behavioral Assessment and Behavior Intervention Plan?
Has your child been evaluated for an IEP or 504 plan?
