My nephew is an IEP student in NJ. My sister was just notified in June that he is failing his math class. We have spoken to both his case manager & her supervisor and both seem to be alright with the fact that he is failing and are not willing to provide him with remediation. They are basically blaming a 14 year old kid for not properly managing his education. They are refusing to offer a remedy and charging her with the responsibility to pay for private services.

Lenya, please post your question on the Helpline. When you do, could you share some specific ways you think the school could support your nephew so he can be more successful in his math studies?
