Our 5yo started kindergarten this year...and he's having a really hard time adjusting. We live in NYC. He's in spe. ed class..he should be receiving speech therapy, occupational therapy and counseling...1, his speech isn't where it should be and 2, his behavior can sometimes be very aggressive. Well, school started at least a month ago and he is still not receiving services because the school hasn't hired anyone yet. In the meantime, I have his teacher calling me at work every other day letting me know how he's doing this and that and how he's not listening, etc. I get so frustrated because isn't this something she's supposed to know how to deal with since she's a special education teacher. I'm at a loss and feel so bad for my son. I'm thinking of placing him in another school all together but by now schools should pretty much be filled. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
