My son was placed in a regular classroom with an inclusion teacher. he is in small group for all other classes but history/english (combined class). we told the school it was not a good idea but they said with his testing he would be okay. 1st quarter "d" second quarter "f" final exam "f" 3rd quarter "d already". i signed the iep because they talked me into this. they said he would be fine and that he could handle this. now he has to go to summer school and no one is taking him out of the classroom. I am trying see if an advocate can come with me and try to have a meeting with the school,but they seem to just walk all over me and use big words and i am being ou maneuvered by school administrators with their pursuasive arguments. my son is failing even if the testing says he is okay. he not surviving in a large class he can't. he is an A student in all of his small group classes. why are they doing this? is it the money? i'm so fed up
