The principal replied to my email and the OT therapist just called to schedule an amendment meeting to Dennis' IEP. I'm so pleased with how fast this ball got rolling... I just wish it was sooner.
But better late than never.
Since I had her on the phone I decided to talk to her about Paul. She explained to me what learning interventions he is involved in.... I relayed to her my desire for more communication. It was all good.
I want to believe that the school is trying . Paul is a hard nut to crack. With him, it is hard to tell where his true ability lies. First, he needs to understand that he has homework and then tell me that he does. Second, he needs to try harder... and take learning more seriously. He sees very little purpose in reading or math... maybe that is because it is a huge struggle for him.
All I know-- is that I am glad that the principal and I talked. Open communication and cooperation are crucial to the success of any child's education.
Especially mine.

I had a dream last night that we were going to be parenting a child with only one eye. a baby. but I knew we could handle it because really he was just a regular kid with only one eye. I thought of Dennis and how much fun it has been watching him grow up via your blog and I thought yeah we can do this. so in my dream, your dennis was the catalyst to us taking on a baby boy we never would have considered. I just thought it was an interesting dream. we have no plans for more children. husband is feeling at full capacity with ten and since some of them are high needs and high supervision we are REALLy not looking. but if a baby boy comes along with one eye instead of two, I know now we could do it.
Hi! Have the ot therapist send home daily notes with Paul's progress also pay privately and get him tested get a second professional's take on his level of functioning.Good luck, Pat
