What is the name of your state? What is the name of your state?Texas
January 31 my son was attacked by a fellow student at a party. He was being Threatened by several students in school and out of school.Basically being Bullied. The boys brought stun guns in to school and were not punished.
He had a knee injury and was imobilized under Drs. Care. The threats continued while he was home. He was excused from school. The school Counselor told me to take him out of the school. I went to the intake center and they told me to there was no room in the middle
schools exept 1 that was 100% hispanic and that would be not a good situation for him. He had 2 six weeks left. We decided to home
school. The counselors told me that all I needed to do was bring home school grades and they would register him. I was going to have surgery so I contacted the school to make sure he was pre registered. He was not and somehow I got a call to test him.I was called on Friday afternoon and Monday he was scheduled to test. He had no study guides. He did bad. He told me that he did not remember learning any of that at Travis or home school.Next thing they wanted to test him for ADD.They did and they told me to put him on Medication and they would retest in August.No study guides were given to me. I tried for weeks to get something. The testing lady
finally called me and told me it was the TEKS. I search for Teks and found 1 for science.A week later I was called buy an asst super.He would be taking the Texas Tech test.It gives a child 60 days to study and you have
to read books. $250.He was supposed to Test Tuesday, I went to the
school and they did not have him down for testing and I saw his 8th grade Counselor. She told me not to listen to the Testing Lady and to take
his grades from School and Homeschool and just register him. I went to the High School and they told me the same thing twice. They called me
to come register him. I went and was refused due to home school is not real school and he needed to be tested. I called the other 2 high schools and
They have been registering home school children and unaccredited privite schools. I went to an Asst. Superintendent and he is getting back to me.
Texas Education assc. told me to get a lawyer. Texas law states every home school is a privite school.
The asst. Super. admitted there were many inconsistencies in their information that was given to me. They only accept Accredited Home schools. This was not told to me. They never had me sign and intent to Homeschool and It states that the MAY test. Not it is Mandatory.
They gace him a choice to send him to Middle school full time and study for
the Test. Or Sign the intent to homeschool and let him study for the test.
He does not want to take the test. The district now is meeting to implement
the homeschool policies which I still have not seen because of all my problems. I am so mad. I have called Attorneys and they have had dealings
with the district and do not want to have bad terms with them.
If anybody can help me I need it badly.
