When I went to take him to school again, he didn't want to go. He was pulling me away from the classroom. I eventually got him inside and playing. He did ok but did not have that happy look on his face. He did not seem to enjoy himself as much as the first day of class. So school right now is on a very trial basis. If Miles doesn't want to go, then I'm not going to take him. I feel very guilty as it is taking my 2 year old and leaving him somewhere.
We had our parent-teacher conference for Olivia last week and she is doing awesome! The teacher spoke very highly of the personal fm and told us that this is something she feels Olivia must have. I'm very happy about this because it was quite the struggle to get the school to agree to it. She said Olivia is much more confident when wearing the fm. Olivia is such a smart and easy girl when it comes to school. It's a relief after dealing with Roland and all his struggles with his learning disabilities.
And speaking of Roland, he is doing much better with his grades. Not good though. They are threatening to take away his IEP. This is a fourth grader who writes at a first grade level. And because he scores highly on tests and is getting better grades WITH accommodations, they want to take all his help and occupational therapy away. His occupational therapist has even stated that he will not make it without the accommodations. I've pretty much been told that if I don't get some sort of diagnosis from the doctor of adhd, add, or something of those sorts that in Spring, he will lose his IEP.
And another worry to add, I haven't heard anything from our disability insurance since August when I filled out the paperwork for our recertification. Ugh, is it summer yet?
