Can a 16 year old in California decide not to go to school when they have been in the IEP program since first grade?

It can be discouraging to be in the special needs category at school, but what other things can you do to make your future better?

Having an IEP is supposed to help you through school, not hurt your chances for a better life in the future. Depending on your disability, there may be other ways to cope, but your parents will have to be diligent and perhaps aggressive in finding them.

In any case, like any other person, you have to have a plan to obtain training and skills so that you can hold a job, pay rent and support yourself as an adult. Ask your school counselor, check into the requirements of Job Corps, ask about obtaining a GED and so on. You should not plan to stay home and hang out.
