Not the same here in CA (Reply to this comment)
by bonniesayers
I have two autistic kids and have been dealing with IEPs and Special Ed for about six years now. There is a box on the IEP that states whether the child gets ESY and that is all.
Although last year our school changed from year round to traditional school calendar and the whole school was closed for summer. They bused those children for ESY and their aides to another school.
However, I wanted my son to attend an autism camp and had the State Regional Center System in CA pay for it and this was possible since the current school had no ESY and the IEP was long before the other offer was known.
I have no clue though what ARD is that you mentioned in this essay. I would suggest mentioning what the abbreviations used mean.
Thanks and good luck

Drives me nuts but that is, or at least was, their standard as recently as last year. With all the budget cuts here, who knows how they are coming up with it. I just went through the ARD on my youngest and they told me he didn't qualify but weren't very clear on what it took to now qualify.

Thanks, Kevin!
Our district uses a similar standard that is near impossible to meet, even for children in ALE. It is clear, isn't it? If a child doesn't significantly regress in 2 weeks they won't regress in 3 months.

Christmas (Reply to this comment)

the Plano School District uses the Christmas break as the determining factor. If the child does not regress over Christmas then the child does not qualify, period.
Great review on a complicated subject.
