[Perform-Talk] Question

Fight it!!!  Who better to work with this student than you, especially given
the long history you've had?
Is the TI new, and is it someone you've dealt with before?  That makes no
sense and you know what's best for the student.

Hi all. I was at a students IEP meeting this afternoon and they have braille
music instruction is one of the goals. However, since the TI is not
comfortable doing a braille music assessment because he does not know
braille music, they're looking for someone else who could assess the
student. Apparently it has to be someone within the county that the student
lives in. Does such a person even exist, someone that can do a braille music
assessment? I've been working with this student since they were six years
old. and yet I can't be the one to do the assessment because I don't live in
the county that they live in. i'm just wondering if the school district is
just wasting time spinning its wheels. I've never run into this before and
I'm wondering if there's anybody who has and would appreciate any thoughts.
apparently the school district can't move forward on this instruction
because they don't have the data that they need. i'm kind of wondering what
the point is since the student is working with me in the first place. Again,
thoughts would be very much appreciated because I've never run into this
before. This is also my very first time advocating at an IEP meeting so I'm
new to this.uuu Leslie Hamric Cello and Braille Music Teacher
