Thank you so very much for this video!!! I'm not sure if you all will see this but you have made my day!! Carrie and Kate, please read your Substack comments from yesterday. I need help, please! I do not know what I'm doing, he hasn't lived with me for a long time. He can stay forever, don't get me wrong but I want to get him through this as easy as possible. My first plan was to go back down to the High School and give them an update and let them know that Killian was Autistic, as it wasn't even in his file!!!! I asked them to pull his records while I waited. They did, I said that his parents let the IEP go when he met all the achievements. This was in grade school. They wanted him to skip a grade, he is so smart. I asked my daughter and his dad to keep the IEP. Ok, come to today, I said, for reasons just like this, my grandson had a meltdown and didn't need to be in school, but because of your absent policies, it's a problem. I need something in place here that if my grandson has a meltdown, he has a right to stay home and not get it taken against him at school. He's highly intelligent and can clearly catch up his work. I then asked if anyone has ever talked to my grandson. Even his own Guidance Counselor admitted he neve met him. So I told them all about my grandson. NOW they know! He's in a great school district and I know they will do right by him, but they have to know! She gave me her card and said, your name is on his records. If you ever want an IEP set up for him, call me directly. Did I do the right thing?????????
