Specially Educated: Dealing With a Non-Specific, Specific Learning Disability (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780985825904)

"Specially Educated" is a true narrative of the less-than-rosy interactions of one family with the public special education system. As different road blocks appear, Mama Bear navigates new routes to teaching, and develops creative insights into her son Bubba's nonspecific, specific learning disability. The book weaves through eighteen years and a true story that is at times humorous and at times tragic. As Bubba moves through elementary school and into middle school, it becomes more and more evident that the school district is lax in providing the special education services they agreed to provide. Frustration breeds creativity and Mama Bear teaches her son when the school district refuses. Armed with hope, she searches out appropriate and effective tutoring that combined with the desire of Bubba to progress, forge a path to a better education for Bubba. And she eventually plots out and executes a systematic strategy to extract reimbursement for tutoring.
