[blparent] cummunicating with school

[Jennifer S Jackson]

I am thinking of sending a note in braille to my son's school speech
therapist. If I had an actual braille writer instead of slate, I would
absolutely do this. I will finally get to actually meet her at the IEP
meeting next week, so will be giving her the benefit of the doubt until
then. I am biased against her already though because instead of responding
to my request that she call, email, or text me about my son's homework she
just told the classroom teacher it was not available in an electronic format
and expected the classroom teacher to communicate with me. I know how big
the case loads are for school speech paths, but that is not my problem. My
son's needs are my priority. Hmm, perhaps she is already unhappy with me
though as I demanded make up time for the sessions she did not have for the
first two weeks of school because she was busy with other things?  

 

On the ups side the classroom teacher this year is fabulous! I could not of
custom ordered a better teacher for my son. She actually really knows and
uses sign language and has co taught for several years with a deaf ed
specialist at her last school.
