HOW TO FIGHT BACK AND DEMAND YOUR CHILD BE TESTED FOR ANY LEARNING PROBLEMS -  SEL ALREADY AGREES YOUR CHILD NEEDS SOCIAL EMOTIONAL LEARNING AND HAS A LEARNING DISORDER - THAT FALLS UNDER IDEA! THERE ARE FEDERAL & STATE LAWS THAT PROTECT CHILDREN. READ READ READ 👇

To know a child Learning needs is to take a Survey? Ridiculous! 

You could argue the following to the school:  SEL is taking non trained teachers who aren't Certified as Intervention Specialist and implementing a program SEL into the whole classroom.

A child now falls under the classification a child needs Social Emotional Learning as a Intervention that SEL is implementing into the classroom as an intervention.  Under the Federal & State law teachers must be certified, the Government mandates it under IDEA. How? Read further.

• To become a clinical psychologist, you will need an undergraduate degree (four to five years of college) plus a doctorate degree (four to seven years of graduate school). For this specialty area, most people will spend between eight to 12 years in higher education.
• To become a teacher it take 4 years.  
• The teacher has obtained full state certification as a special education teacher (including certification obtained through alternative routes to certification), or passed the state special education teacher licensing examination, and holds a license to teach in the state as a special education teacher 

Now the everyday teacher who wasn't trained or specialize in Psychology is teaching SEL -Social Emotional Learning and isn't Government Certified by way of all teachers are not Intervention Specialist. Not all children have Social Emotional Learning Problems, each student has different learning needs and what's better then having a teacher who looks at each student in their learning needs as individuals and recognizes what that child might need because of emotional or non emotional learning problems, some children have ADHD and cause infractions in class, there are numerous learning problems. When parents and teachers come together in a classroom and a child has a learning disability they have tests to find out what that child needs to able to learn and excel, they get tested and end up with either an IEP or a 504, their is testing for children with learning emotional problems and other problems. (SEL) Social Emotional Learning falls under Emotional Behavior. 

Can my child get an IEP or 504 due to emotional problems? YES!  What is defined as emotional problems? Your doctor would test your child and the school! The Student could have social awkwardness, feels uncomfortable around others and all sorts of emotional issue that makes a child have emotional infractions and unable to learn or it makes him or her difficult to learn, they wouldn't give a survey. A intervention specialist and team of people who are Certified specialist give any test that should be done. SEL is removing that step.  

• What is an IEP - The Individualized Education Program is a legal document under United States law that is developed for each public school child in the U.S. who needs special education. It is created through a team of the child's parent and district personnel who are knowledgeable about the child's needs. Wikipedia

• What is a 504 -The 504 Plan is a plan developed to ensure that a child who has a disability identified under the law and is attending an elementary or secondary educational institution receives accommodations that will ensure their academic success and access to the learning environment.

With SEL you get Increase instruction time, reduce behavior infractions, that's like starting out the school year that their is already behavioral problems. To assume a child already has behavior infractions is not only stupid it's not true!  Ok wait a minute this is changing IDEA!  Read further. What are infractions?. Get your student handbook out that was given to you at the beginning of school and if you didn't get one ask for one or ask your child's teacher what they have listed as infractions? Here is the difference about Infractions and as you can see it's behavioral.   

• What some Minor Infractions could be; Minor infractions are those that are commonly handled by teachers in a classroom.  Here are just a few: Disrupting class,  Defiance, insolence, insults, Noncompliance.
• What are some Major Infractions; Major infractions are those that warrant the intervention of a school administrator. Here are a few: Disruptive behavior, Harassment, bullying, cyber-bullying, hazing and retaliation

What is IDEA: Disability is a natural part of the human experience and in no way diminishes the right of individuals to participate in or contribute to society. Improving educational results for children with disabilities is an essential element of our national policy of ensuring equality of opportunity, full participation, independent living, and economic self-sufficiency for individuals with disabilities.

The concept of IDEA was for Children with a Learning disability or emotional learning problems and have Specialized Teachers who are trained solely for that purpose and follow strict guidelines set by the Government in dealing with Social Emotional Learning Behavioral Problems, such as ADHD and all sorts of other problems. With SEL in each classroom your child falls into the Classification of having Behavior problems and assume your child has disadvantage in their learning structure and needs and needs intervention. What does that all mean? They are classified as a Child with a Learning Disability. They have specialized teachers who are specialized and with SEL they are placing a learning structure that all Children need Emotional Training a intervention. 

Can my child get an IEP due to emotional problems -Yes, an Individualized Education Program (IEP) can certainly include emotional supports as well as emotional goals and objectives. It's common for a 504 plan to include this type of support, too.

The Government requires certified training on Teachers who can teach a child with a learning disorder. With SEL your child falls into that classification because they deemed your child already with Behavioral issues and this program will help them in their learning needs a intervention and your now everyday teacher who isn't certified is giving your child Social Emotional Learning techniques that Requires Trained Teachers that are CERTIFIED!

2. Specifies requirements for special education teachers. When used with respect to any public elementary school or secondary school special education teacher teaching in a state, “highly qualified” means that: • The teacher has obtained full state certification as a special education teacher (including certification obtained through alternative routes to certification), or passed the state special education teacher licensing examination, and holds a license to teach in the state as a special education teacher, except that when used with respect to any teacher teaching in a public charter school, the term means that the teacher meets the requirements set forth in the state's public charter school law;  The teacher has not had special education certification or licensure requirements waived on an emergency, temporary or provisional basis; and • The teacher holds at least a bachelor's degree.   

 Edutopia gives 3 Ways School Counselors Can Boost SEL -  Proves my argument above, teachers are Counselors now or Non Certified Teacher acting as Specialist intervention and implementing and intervention called (IEP AKA Intervention Education Plan or a 504 Plan) 

SEL is a intervention program being sold to school and teachers who are not Certified under the law and is implementing them into the classroom using Non Special Education Teachers and making them Special Education intervention Teachers who are not qualified or certified as Required under Federal Educational Laws. 

• What is the role of student support professionals in fostering social and emotional learning (SEL) at the middle and high school levels? School counselors, psychologists, social workers, and other SSPs have many responsibilities, to which promoting SEL is typically an add-on. And we know that the context for SEL interventions in middle and high school is often one of time constraint.

Each Parent should be concerned with what is happening at their school. Make sure you demand that your child be tested under IDEA before Intervention of SEL Social Emotional Learning to see if your child needs any Psychological help for their learning needs. Ask the Teacher you're are speaking to if they are Certified as required by Federal Law, IDEA!

What is Critical Race Theory (CRT)?

Critical Race Theory claims that American society is fundamentally racist and that it is organized to help the white race oppress “people of color.” Some terms that are common to CRT and that have been defined by CRT theorists are “white privilege,” “whiteness,” “white supremacy,” “unconscious bias,” “implicit bias,” “systemic racism,” and “institutionalized racism.” At times, CRT proponents support affirmative action and reparations. Under CRT, only a member of a given “oppressed” minority has the right to speak about the racism that affects them. CRT generally denies that America is a meritocracy, or even that a meritocracy is a just society. A key goal of CRT is “equity” (or equality of outcomes) for all people or at least all groups. Equal opportunity is rarely mentioned because CRT proponents believe that this is not possible in a fundamentally racist society like America.
