Eligibility Tuesdays

My day consisted of attending two eligibility conferences.  One was an initial eligibility conference in which we did not find the student eligible.  The parent was pleased that their child wasn't eligible.  I wasn't sure how the parent was going to react considering they were the source of the referral.

The second one of the day was a re-evalaution.  This one resulted in a change in classification.  The student had been found eligible under the emotionally disturbed classification several years ago...for one incident...that, when taken in context, seemed understandable and not a reason to base that classification.  Following our evaluations, we changed the classification to a more reasonable communication impairment.

The rest of my day was spend doing paperwork.

Tomorrow I get to go out of district for a planning meeting.  A meeting for which I already know the outcome.  All these meetings before the break are playing havoc with counseling.
