186momx - could you see if they will make an exception to the transfer deadline since your school took its sweet-a$$ time with the TAG testing and results? I think if you make enough of a stink, you’ll be able to send your DD elsewhere sooner.
I mean, you missing the deadline is easily explained. You relied on the current school to do their jobs in a timely manner and to do right by your DD. The fell down on both accounts.
When you say “took their sweet ass time”, what do you mean exactly? They were out of compliance? Is TAG special ed or gifted/talented?
So on the subject of DS's club. He had interviews for the officer position last week. He had to be in full dress. Black shoes, pants, dress jacket, white shirt. I asked him several times, do you have everything. I get a huff, YEEEESSS.... eye roll. Like, why would I even ask.
So I pick him up afterschool and ask how did it go. He said, well you won't believe it. Try me. He went to put on his clothes for the interview and he had packed a white lab coat instead of a white shirt. I brought it home for DD from work for career day. How he got hold of it, I have no idea. So he waits for his buddy to come out and tracks him down to borrow the shirt the kid is wearing. Now DS is on an HGH regime as I have discussed, so he may be pushing 5ft 4 by now. The kids shirt that he borrowed is 6ft 3. So I guess he just stuffed the knee length shirt in his pants and went on. Who knows how the interview went.
I love this for many reasons. As moms we can all relate, and good for him for solving his problem!!
campermom TAG is gifted/talent. I originally asked her teacher and counselor the first Friday of October. I got the run around. Waited the 30 working days which put us into winter break. Contacted principle, teacher, counselor and beginning of January and they hadn't even started my request because the paperwork they never sent me wasn't filled out. Got the link filled out the paperwork and sent it in same day. Took the school another 30 working days to have the TAG team meet to decide to have her tested. Another 7 weeks went by before she got tested by the district psych and another month to give me the results. So I've been messing around with this since October.
