Open Quote My daughter attends this school. I thought Fox district was better than they actually are. My daughter had ADHD, and has had mulitple notes home regarding her behavior, including a note saying, "Could not keep hand to self." (On her calander. One simple sentance with no formal letter, no call home, no visit to the principal's office...etc) when she hit a child. The teacher she has even at one point suggested a medicaton change. When I requested her to be evaluated by the diagnostician, so that tings could be proplerly addressed, she was denied even an INITIAL evaulaution. I went as high up as the principal, who stated that because she was not failing, and her behavior was not bad enough to be sent to her office, she would not get an evaluation. It's pretty sad that a child in need has to be failing or disruptive enough to be sent to the office before they will even condsider an INITIAL evaluation, much less an actual thorough one which in any district that has sepcial school district (Fox does not), an evaluation for a child with ADHD or other confirmed diagnoses would be the minimum standard.

Meanwhile, my daughter is doing math way above her grade level at home, and also reading above her grade level. If Fox district and Rockport Heights Elementary would actually do thier jobs as they should, then my daughter would qualify for thier gifted program. I have been told by a psychologist and a family law attorney that Fox distict in general does not address things for children with special needs and that they just don't know how to handle children with ADHD. It is sad to see what a great disservice is being done to my child, and likely many others. I will be moving over the summer and will be putting my daughter in a better district. Close Quote
