I was up in MN; rural Hennepin County. My class size was 120 or so at best. The district wasn't too well equipped. We had to fight just to get me on an IEP with them. They wouldn't do anything for the request that I use a laptop to take notes because of my poor handwriting. Family had to cover that cost. From what little I've heard since they have gotten better for accommodations but I haven't been back to the grounds or even a class reunion.

My daughter, husband and step daughter are and were in regular school. My daughter is trying to adjust to having absent seizures and jme. All her teacher's and school staff that know about her are doing thetir best to make school as normal as possible for her but also make it easier for her to be able to succeed. She has had seizures since she was in kindergarten but was misdiagnosed as add.

Public school except for a year and a half in private due to problems with classmates. I graduated with my class in the early 90’s.

I was bullied from about 5th grade until graduation..Long story but district seemed to ignore what kids were doing to me (the old “boys will be boys” days) at times.

In high school (starting 9th grade) I WAS placed on an IEP.

I was very non social because of how I was treated. Around high school (little bit before) I started going online (pre-world wide web days) and my socialization was there. Still in contact with a very dear friend I met back then even today.

Back then my seizures were well controlled. I NEVER had one in school thank God…but the stigma with epilepsy and the genetic condition I have (neurofibromatosis) causing visible tumors and cafe a lait spots seemed to cause a lot of judgement on me from other classmates.

I went to normal schooling all the way through school and graduated from high school.

I went to public school k-12.
