Several families in our neighborhood have rented homes during the school year in nearby “supportive” Districts so their kids could get the help they need. They stay at the rented house 4 nights a week and are back home on the weekends.

Why not put the kids in private school?

I live paycheck to paycheck. Private isn’t an option.

I think the issue is, people shouldn't have to jump through hoops to make sure their child gets a good education!!

I hate having to start the RTI process for students, just to pass the buck in hopes they get what they need in the end. The one good thing about a private school is, YOU'RE IT. If there's an issue, it's up to you to identify it, communicate to parents, and come up with a plan.

Just an FYI- by law, schools are not permitted to delay evals for the IEP process while they “wait and see” w/RTI.

No, they aren't. But it still feels like "passing the buck." Especially when teachers have to hint at possibilities of learning disabilities, and are denied the ability to share observations directly to parents. (I understand it is to protect both the school and teacher.)

Instead of hinting at learning disabilities, why not tell them that their child might benefit from evaluations to find out his learning style? ;-)

First you may have to have their cognitive limitations clinically identified, and then identify their alternative compensating skills and abilities that they use to work around their cognitive limitations. Time to catch up with international research.

I've often pondered that we should do screenings with all children, probably around 2nd grade, and positive results automatically go to full psychoeducational testing. Identify early. Make this process legally required so schools can't delay/deny identification.
