[Nfbf-l] Dept of Education

[Debby B]

Anyone have good contacts at the Dept. of Education?
Students in 11th grade must take an End-of-Course exam in order to pass their US History class. This test is scheduled at Winona's school for Tuesday, April 30. Today the school found out that the state is requiring her to take it on THURSDAY, April 25.

Yes, in two days. Yes, 5 days prior to the rest of the school taking the test.

The Braille teacher, the guidance counselors, and the principal have all appealed to the Dept. of Ed. As a parent, I want to lodge a formal complaint. She will lose nearly a week of preparation time, with only 2 days notice to take the test.

Any suggestions? Resources?

Thanks!
