My son came home from school today (third grade, he’s 9) and was very down and sad When we talked to him we found out that they are having an end of the year party tomorrow, and you get to participate based on how well you performed on a test Everyone passed as far as getting to watch a movie and have popcorn (yellow level), but then there was a green level, where you get a drink, and a blue level, where you also get a candy My son only reached the yellow level (he has a disability + IEP and all) and was embarrassed and sad that he doesn’t get to participate with the rest of the class and get a drink and snack I’m a teacher myself so I’m always trying to err on their side, but part of this seems kind of messed up for that young of an age, esp when my son has a disability that directly impacts his performance on these things When we reached out to the teacher to see her side of the story - we didn’t want to just blindly trust our son on it - she reiterated the system What would you guys do?

Well that’s a tough one my son has a few learning disabilities ADHD oppositional Defiance disorder never confirmed by a Dr but we’re pretty sure dyslexia too he’s getting ready for high school maybe this years been rough plus the video games that he literally never puts down when home but he has struggled and missed out on things because of it but I also see the other side where he’s the kids earned it and you can’t always accommodate kids that have learning disabilities and difficulties I myself struggled but the real world is a dog eat dog world and we know it the playing field will never be level and unfortunately people with learning disabilities and and/or behavioral disabilities won’t always be catered too but I hope the little guy will get a drink and snack
