IEP update....

Yesterday we meet with Faith's school. This meeting was to see, after all the tests and observations, if Faith qualified for an emotionally impaired IEP plan. We went over pages and pages of notes, opinions, scores, and suggestions and she met every qualification for emotionally impaired. On May 5 we have an appointment where we will make our suggestions to the district on what we think she needs and they will make their suggestions. Together we have to come up with a plan to get her back into school and participating again. We also heard from Little Angels Service Dogs, we will know next week if Faith is getting the dog we think she is and the final dates for handler training. It is looking like the last two weeks of June or the first two weeks of July. We are all getting excited because it is drawing so close, yet it is scary because Renae and I basically signed our lives away to get a loan for this dog with the hopes that we can still raise the rest of the money needed to pay for it. It is a risk I had to take, but it is scary. To some people it is not a lot of money, but to our military friends out there who make the paychecks we make you can understand. We will keep you posted.
