How does that sound? One less meeting each year, one less think stack of papers to review. Sounds great, doesn't it? I guess... I'm just not completely sold on taking him off of one. He will be on a 504, which will still provide Jake with an FM or soundfield system, and I have the district's assurance that they will check his speech/articulation, etc. several times throughout the year.
Here's my concern. Every time we have taken a break from speech (doesn't matter which child, you name it, it's happened), their hearing has tanked. So I'm somewhat hesitant.
I'll keep you posted.....

I think you should reconsider this and just let him keep the IEP. Can you??? just suggestion. let me know what happened. I use to have IEP when in school few yr ago. I never really new what it was because I finally found out I was different 5 yrs ago.

we opted to keep the IEP rather than move to 504, it was our TOD who said she'd rather keep him on the IEP
Sigh....yes, you're both saying what my gut was telling me. My mom radar is seldom wrong, and this decision caused me angst. I think I'll be re-visiting this! Thanks for the input :)
But remember I'm coming from the view of: we have a syndrome and everytime we visit a doctor we leave w/a surgery date of some sort...so though he does very well in school and may not need services, things change very quickly at my house. Aside from ADHD diagnosis this year, look at what all else happened.
