My son has an IEP, I changed schools because I couldn't get the former district to work with me.
My son has above average IQ, but also has ADHD, anxiety disorder, PTSD, and well you get my point.
I ended up working with the school and his pediatrican, and psych Dr. to get everything in place.
Now he's in a gifted class that is for children who are gifted, but have other disabilities, it'a only got 10 kids, and 5 teachers. He's doing so well and for the first time he loves going to school.
It can depend on so many thing, the school district, the teachers, unfortunatlly I've found that the "older" teachers just don't want to hear about any of this stuff.
It can take a long time and a lot of patience (which can be hard when it comes to your child).
Thank god the district we are in has a program in junior high, so Austin has been trying to integrate into some classes in 6th grade, and that will continue into junior high, so that hopefully when high school comes he will be able to handle it.
My thoughts are with You, I know it can be so hard when it comes to our children.
