School/LHIN Responsibilities:  ● In‑school services are subject to LHIN approval. This process can take as long as six to eight  weeks.   ● Appointments are booked by the Learning Support Specialists and are offered during the  school day.  Parent/Student Responsibilities:  ● An appointment may be cancelled in advance by contacting the service provider and  appropriate Learning Support Specialist for a particular grade.   ● If a student misses an appointment without first contacting the therapist and Learning  Support Specialist, it will count as an authorized session.   ● Students may not miss an in‑class assessment scheduled by a teacher under any  circumstance.  Furthermore:   ● Once a student is discharged from a LHIN service, they are ineligible for the same LHIN  services for one calendar year.  ● Under extenuating circumstances, upon acceptance of a formal request directed to the VP,  Teaching & Learning, a limited number of private sessions with the same therapist may be  provided at the school. Parents are responsible to cover the cost of these additional  appointments and pay the service provider directly.   ● These extenuating circumstances must be agreed upon by the Havergal College Senior  Administration prior to additional sessions being booked.
