Jodi,
I just wanted to say that I so agree with your last post. The part that I just can't fathom is the "cover-up". Yes people make mistakes, and they can be forgiven. I just have a bad feeling for how easily the Principal lied and is trying to have others follow suite.
My gutt tells me that this isn't the first time he has done this and more than likely not his last.
Maybe they are two seperate issues. The principals behavior is one and the other the "how to - for Ryan and staff"?

From one that also has an escaper, and sorry to say, still at 12, every now and then gets it in his head to go somewhere and just goes  Although Chris has gotten better, one just never knows when he might decide to try again  Chris use to have a one on one assistant mostly for this very reason and he got away from her once and one time got away from the OT and one time from the PT in school, THANK GOD he was found and nothing bad happened. BUT, in all honesty Chris has gotten away from his Dad and I, and we have locks, bells and watch him like a hawk. Sadly it can happen, even when you think you have all areas covered. I am very sorry this happened but soooo HAPPY your RYAN was found and all is OK ;D I would too call an emergency meeting to clairify why the behavior plan was not followed and why the Principal would let the aide go. They all obviously screwed up BIG time, and my guess this was a BIG BIG WAKE UP CALL for them all. I have to "sadly" say hearing your Principal lied to cover his butt does not shock or surprise me at all.  I hope you get this all worked out to your satisfaction, BEST of LUCK  CC ~ |

Well, I got a copy of the "incident" report. More attempts to not take responsibility... it gives a detailed account of all of Ryan's "bad" behaviors - I mean very, very, detailed... but when we get to the office part... interestingly the details become extremely vague!! Basically it says that he came to the office, sat and did his work, and then left unobserved... then he was found. That's pretty much it LOLOLOL!!! Nothing about the P, nothing about the 1:1 leaving, nothing about the doors being wide open, no information regarding the lady who brought him back... etc.
In addition, the P has changed his story AGAIN.
I talked with the lady who found Ryan today... she is STILL ticked-off over how the whole thing was handled. Without ANY input from me whatsoever - she stated to me that she felt they were trying to "cover-up" their mistake - rushing her to leave. I'm glad she said that because she is a total stranger to me and she feels the same way I do. And... sadly, she mentioned that the school secretary and his aide scolded Ryan waaay too much. I told her she was an angel - and thanked her repeatedly for being in the right place at the right time!
I requested that the P amend the report to include ALL the facts, or at least allow me to attach a parent response to the report. Haven't heard back from him yet.
I am a detailed note-taker (happens to be part of my profession) and I will tell you it has come in real handy for this latest deal. I've got dates/times/details and all of that has made my responding so much easier - no guessing about what may have been said, KWIM?
I think we will be meeting on Tues or Wed next week.
