School Days

Currently im doing the school dance its  fight for one thing have another taken 
next year master M starts year 1 big thing for us as he exits early intervention(EI) and starts mainstream at a local public school .
so far he attends 2 days mainstream 2 days EI he is doing ok getting up to speed he needs an aide as his Social and behaviors are not the best . the school decides his teachers his aide time  the whole Lott next year .
while us parents do the leg work extra therapies getting people to sign off on things to help like I pads chew toys special seats pens when do all the leg work but transition is still half way down the toilet as you wont know their class room or teachers till 2 days before school starts so hard to show a child who is so focused on routines and not dealing with change "well son this is how the school does things ".

first week back is always a time of frustration and nerves always having to carry your mobile with you in case it rings having to pick him up early cause they refuse to have him there being disruptive when it could have been prevented .

i have a 2 and a half year old who will be starting kindy in 2014 and i swear the day she walks in that classroom she will be more prepared then any other 4 year old why because she watches every thing we do with her brother thats why 

i have recently found out about a service to use with your fachia funding  of a group of people qualified to help and sign off on things with a once a week phone call why couldnt this have been around when master M was  just diagnosed and we were living in esperance would of helped us greatly .

what im trying to say is if your special child is in a mainstream school cause their IQ is too high for an education support unit or special needs school 
keep fighting there is a light at the end of the tunnel even if all we do is fight at least we know why we do .
