F/U from 8-21-06. thank you jparalaw for your answer . school started on 08-24-06 .I still had not received a response nor could I get in touch with the supt regarding her decision to approve my child to attend the better school. I decided to take my child , her medical record, transfer form ,lunch form and my 30.00 receipt [ 10.00 for student fee and 20.00 for book rental] and went to the school. The principal accepted her and placed her in class. she attended class for 5 days . the superintendent removed her from class stating she had to be re- registered at her home school and further wait on her approval for my child to attend the better school. The failing school is 5 years into improvement and only met ayp this year in math.she said by law she has until the 15th of september to make that decision. she would not allow my child to remain at the better school until that time ,As she stated, she has to review request according to need. did she have the right to remove my child?
