As the school year is gettign ready to start, I again find myself registering Johnathan. He is a 5th grader this year, and still he doesn't recognize his own name.

Will they offer an education to Johnathan, or life skills again? He is a quad, his life skills will be done by others; but he ain't stupid, like they seem to think since they do not offer education to children as severe physically as my Johnathan.

Will they offer the therapies he needs, or continue with the dead, low grade therapies that fit all children in need; sick that mys son needing a bit of speech and my severe CP son both have same basic therapists.

Will they feed my son, or come up with another law covering their butts and excusing them of not having to...last year I never spelled out amount of nutrition needed in a day in his IEP, so 1/2 can (4 oz.) pediasure was okay for a day...how is it kids without IEp's get fed enough, when legally they don't have to feed them at all??????

Anyway, I register Johnatahn because he deserves an education and I pray one day someone wakes up and realizes this. Civil rights organization doesn't even see fault with any of this. I am completely disgusted. However, after last year, I would never allow my son at their school again, for I believe the abuse he suffered is punishable by law; but since I have learned it ain't, schools are allowed to abuse and neglect the special needs, for they write the laws and the loop holes that follow...my son will never be left in their care again.
