His fellow classmates protested and demanded he be able to "walk" with his class. It was a battle but the kids were able to make it happen...DynamicDuohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17873524872136172078noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6330049216964999819.post-34886452741053074002012-02-19T08:50:55.325-08:002012-02-19T08:50:55.325-08:00There are lots of "school people" who ar...There are lots of "school people" who are in complete agreement with what we are asking for, but they have to walk carefully here since they have jobs on the line.

I know of at least one family that had to take it there and they did end up winning!<br />Our school counselor was adamant at our last IEP meeting that our girls should be allowed the opportunity to "graduate" and feel as much like a typical teenager as possible.

Let me know the school board meeting and I'll do my best to be there to help advocate for you.DynamicDuohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17873524872136172078noreply@blogger.com
