IEPs and Active Refusal

[charity.kersey]

If you have a student on an IEP, with promotion based on goals/progress, paper administration and oral administration written into the IEP, would you recommend the student attempt an active refusal?

[scott.placek]

If you actively refuse, it does not matter whether they have paper only or not. The paper administration in IEP is meant to keep absences down to a week for those who opt out by absence. The key to active refusal is to have either (a) a school that cooperates in facilitating refusal or (b) a kid strong willed enough to carry it out!
