- Balgair 6y agoNot really. The whole district is kinda like this. The kids really do need the help. The reasons for that need are all unique to each kid, but the underlying reason is poverty. They don't have enough to eat, their parents are incarcerated, their home life is horrific, they don't sleep enough, they get beat up by authority figures, etc. Add up any few of the reasons, and they'll clearly need an IEP, then add in trauma and PTSD stuff, and ... well. Mind, some are just fine through all the mess, and some need help even for less extreme issues. All people are distinct. Giving kids the little help they can get at school due to these life-long circumstances is well warranted.
