Maegan can't walk on her own, she uses a wheelchair and support from others. She has CP, she is legally blind, and was tested for Autism and was labeled as "possibly autistic", by the school system. She lives 5 minutes from her "zoned school" and since 1955 students in wheelchairs have been attending THAT school. She was denied entrance, on August 9th 2010. The school system (not her parents) enrolled her at another school. It's a long story...because of this Maegan is not getting the correct education, or rights as a human being, that she is entitled to. She was forced into a class that is not in keeping with her IEP. She is regressing rapidly. Please Sign the petition. She is smart...she deserves the same rights as all other students. Don't allow her to be lost in the system...please stand up for Maegan.

This is just heartbreaking. She lives right there! Why make things so much harder on her and her family for no reason? Let her go to the school down the street.

Ridiculous. Schools are supposed to help kids not make their lives miserable. Do the right thing and let her in.

5 minutes away vs a long commute? Common sense people.

LISTEN TO THE IEP!!! If she needs that school then she needs to be there. Stop pushing these kids aside.

THIS IS DISCRIMINATION. Plain and simple. She deserves the same education as everyone else.

My son had struggles with the school district too. They dont care about the students they only care about their own rules. Hope she gets in.
