I have a 5 year old son with special needs. We had his IEP meeting August 9th where he was switched from a general classroom to a special education classroom. We were told that DC would be in touch with telling us his placement of school, since our local neighborhood school does not have special ed classrooms. Today is 8/29, the 4th day of school – and my kiddo still does not have a placement. (more…)
