My 7 year old grandson has been diagnosed with ODD and ADHD and has had a long history of documented behaviors at school (Brockport School District), impulse control, bullying, threatening, hurting other children, stealing, etc. He has had a 504 Plan for years and is not receiving proper supports. I requested an IEP for him for pull-out therapy, a 1:1 aid during transitions and counseling. The school denied him an IEP because his ODD are only happening during transitions, specials, lunch and on the bus, while his behavior in the classroom and grades are average. In my opinion, the school is ignoring his disability and I am looking for an ODD expert who would be willing to consult on this matter as I appeal the school's decision. I am also hoping to find an attorney who has experience with dealing with ODD and the school system. Any help would be appreciated!

What a stupid program! I don’t have any mental disability, and for some damn reason I’m in it, it’s because of math and now I get B’s which is at least normal and for some reason I’m still in it. Does anybody know how I can get out of it?.

[@scpfintel2732]

Your parents need to contact your guidance counselor or case manager and tell them that you no longer wish to have IEP services. But if you do this, you will no longer receive any accommodations whatsoever, such as extra time on tests, computers for written work, etc. If these are things that you benefit from, then you should reconsider.

[@toast_stealer]

Are you _sure_ you haven’t been diagnosed with anything? I’m pretty sure students without disabilities/disorders can’t get IEPs.

[@fwvipra]

for me i had anxiety and that was pretty much it . i’m a normal person but still in iep lol

[@Cola_mans]

I have a iep in English because “english is my second language” and my family doesn’t really speak a lot of English but because of all of that I have to deal with it. And English is my first language so I don’t know what they did to get me in here
