Saturday, September 8, 2012

My son was a transfer student, due to custody change, and attended for 3 months before I learned they hadn't received his transcripts, which were mailed by his old school the day after custody changed. The reason they never received them: his father falsified his name when he registered my son. The school was made aware of his legal name, with copies made of the Name Change document from Probate Court, 3 weeks after my son started classes at Lin-Wood. None of his teachers, or his Special Ed coorinator made no mention of the missing records during the Fall Open House. No one contacted me to request info or records. I learned of the missing records during an Individualized Education Plan meeting in the first week of December (He began the School Year the day after Labor Day). Close Quote
