Thank you. I am not entirely upset that the school will not change the iep from OHI to AUT as I am tha tthey will not take the doctors recommendations. I have reached out to SPANN, just got a few resources from Autism Family Services of NJ, and am calling an advocate from FACES.
I had my son bring in headphones for the bus, but was told he was not allowed to wear them. The school said they will take care of this. In the meantime, I don't want my son getting in trouble and adding to his anxiety.
As for services my son really is not recieving any. He goes to OT 2x a week and sees the school social worker once a month. We are taking him to someone privately and are fighting with the insurance to cover it...
One of my big concerns is that with the special ed teacher leaving at 11, no one is able to tell me what is going on for the second half of the day. I am thinking about going in to observe, but I also know my son's behavior will be different with me there (I have volunteered at the school in the past).
