How do I get my child help in public school? I know she has special needs,but she is very bright..I'm at such a loss. Any information on this subject would help a great deal.

Hello, I know it's frustrating. In Florida I had to ask for an IEP. Individualized Education Plan..If my son was borderline passing they wouldn't help me. I had to bring some paperwork to the Dr's office and it had to be a medical disability. He tests out very smart, but the day to day is hard. He just cant follow tasks or focus. The school has to find accommodations to teach him. They have, because i have a big mouth and tell them what he needs.

Look on the county school website and look for the special education links. You should find something. Also go to the office and ask them for something like an IEP. You want your kid in general education with special accommodations for their particular disability. spd might not be recognized. try ADD just for the iep. good luck from Florida
