I was told not to pull these student from their curriculum support because their special education minutes are written into the IEP. I&#8217;ve been trying to pull the majority of my students from their electives (most of my students receive speech therapy 1x per week and they have their elective every day).<\/p>\n<p>Today I pulled a student from his elective and his teacher stated loudly in front of the class that he would be penalized for missing class, unable to make-up the work, and that his grade would suffer. I tried to explain that his speech therapy time was mandated in his IEP and it was binding, legal document. She said she didn&#8217;t care.<\/p>\n<p>I apologized to the student who was blinking back tears and said I would find another time to see him. Unfortunately, this student seems to be struggling to maintain an average grade in all his academic classes.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m furious, but I can&#8217;t seem to find anything legal and specific that states that teachers can&#8217;t penalize students for missing general education time to receive special education services. I spoke to administration and they said there was nothing that can be done. I feel like this teacher is basically punishing this student for his disability.<\/p>\n<p>Is there any legal recourse?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cat:\u00a0 I&#8217;m an SLP who recently began working in the state of California.
