But it's the law. Any student needing anything special in education serivces must fill one out. Maybe it can be used against a family, but that has not been my experience. It allows the school district to give the child the special attetion she needs with family and professional input. I'm surprised that the district allowed the dog to come at all without an IEP.

No it is some petty bureaucrats trying to exercise control over everything they can in their little kingdom. If a kid had a non functional leg and needed wheelchair access to something should they be required to have a full 'evaluation' like that? That administrator was just trying to get back at someone for not jumping though the hoops. This it typical behavior from bureaucrats who feel their power threatened by someone. Rather than show and ounce of compassion or clear thinking they lash out with what rules they have at their command.

Sounds like the district just wants to be able to make their rice bowl just a little bigger by hiring an extra person.
