How much should I be paying for an IEP advocate?

I went through this same experience with my son in 2020 when he was 6 and in first grade. The ABS classroom in my district was not within our school, it was not even run by our school district but was a private special education provider that operates within one of the district's elementary schools. Our son was working with a child psych at the time and we asked if she would come to this tour with us.

Thank you for sharing your experience and for the kind words. You've given me a lot to consider!

Whether or not self-contained classrooms are dumping grounds honestly depends on your district. I teach in a very large, urban school district with a very high number of students with disabilities. We have two types of self-contained within our district (it’s rare that we use outside programs). The first type is usually for kids with more severe disabilities with high needs and the other is for kids with significant behavior issues. It is very difficult for us to move kids into either of those programs without a LOT of data and a LOT of pushing with admin. On the other hand, there’s a more “affluent” district near us and we’ve had students transfer to us from them who had NO business being in self-contained, they just put them there because 90% of their school population is high scoring and they don’t need to really care about the small percentage.

Thank you, good points.

I am new to this as well, but my state has a nonprofit "parent center" that provided me with a free advocate who is familiar with our school district.
