My first grade daughter, who is a twin, is far behind her sibling. So are 9 other students that were in the same Kindergarten class and also made honor roll like my child, that I know of. I have already been told she will FAIL first grade if I don't send her to Sylvan or Reading Resource (another pay per trip resource center). The teacher is pushing me to send her to the doctor for medication. The principal says Sylvan is the answer. I work with my child every afternoon for hours, helping her learn skills she should have mastered in Kindergarten. Now, I'm being told by sources outside my school system that there is case law saying that schools can't tell you to go to any resource that costs the parent. If they do, the administrator from the other school district told me, the school would have to pay fees. Schools can only suggest you look at all available options and send child to their teacher afterschool. Does anyone know anything about this? I appreciate all help! Sara S -GA
