She requires one on one, safety reasons being one, but for learning is another.<\/p>\n<p>A problem classroom observation of her, without interference to her or others, just for 5-10 minutes once in a while. Not necessarily regular visits. We are fine with with calling ahead of time and be escorted. The principal has made it restrictive and burdensome. He wants at least 2 hour notice and it has to be on his time.<\/p>\n<p>I called, made an appt, was given a time to observe, but stop in the principals office. The principal then gave me his observation rules for the year.\u00a0 Restricted visits getting fewer and fewer as he &#8220;weaned&#8221; us off observation for the rest of this year.<\/p>\n<p>Because of my daughter&#8217;s many needs, I would like to observe her in action, her progress, to take joy in her development.<\/p>\n<p>Note: Last week we had a meet with school district officials (special needs director for the district, the principal , the principals boss, school social worker) Mom and Dad. After meeting ended on a positive note, the special needs director came rushing out to the point of threatening us, saying they could send out a restraining order letter to us. Shocking and totally inappropriate. We felt we had done nothing wrong or threatening to deserve this kind of threat.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ron:\u00a0 Our nonverbal, in diapers, autistic, Down&#8217;s syndrome 13 year old, 8th grade daughter was moved to a MS closer to our house by the school, which is good.
