So you believe that a one hour observation of a student who was not feeling well that day would be a thorough or "lengthy" observation?
How do you know that student was not feeling well? If it is reported that a student is not feeling well, then that is incorporated into the findings of the observational period.
The experts that know what they are looking for can obtain the answers they need in an hour. Does your doctor have to spend more than an hour with you to make a diagnosis for something that is straight forward and based on symptomology?
I'm sure with that one hour observation, they also reviewed testing results and other records that provided additional information to the observed behavior. To even be eleigible for special placement or an IEP, she would have had to be assessed and findings made available to her home school. Evaluations are then done every three years. It is the law.
But, you failed to answer my questions.
