(1 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - I am a parent of a disabled child which has been and continues to be held back from participating in trips. I met in an I.E.P. for Nov. and now my son is unable to to participate in this trip, because one of his teachers feels that he is too disabled to handle and have made all kinds of excuses for him to attend. I have tried my best to work someting out with every member that I could for my son to go but, his teacher always has some reason for my son not to attend, I guess that it's because he is disabled through S.S.I. and she is worried about keeping up with a child under these conditions. If any one has any comments about the subject of any teachers at R.S. Middle School, please contactme. We look forward to hearing from anyone at your own convenience. I will be posting this same situation on other websites whether they are deleted or not!!!!!!
