I better submit my schedules now then!
Actually, you're definitely not going to find me on here in mid December. I'm going to be enjoying myself in WDW.
As for the knowledge piece, I think you all have some true gems here with a lot of expertise in this area. My knowledge is fairly broad in the in's and out's of legal bits with special education. Their's is more narrowed to their particular needs. I merely offer another perspective and can provide a few more resources of which they might or might not be aware.
Special education and the delivery of special services should always be a collaborative effort between schools, the student, teachers, parents, and other providers.
The expertise that you all, as parents and providers, is absolutely necessary in the whole scheme of things. Don't ever let anyone tell you differently and always try to keep yourself as well informed about your child's education as you would about any other major life decision. I'd say you all are doing a great job of that.
