Small victories

The letter came in the mail today. The Office of Civil Rights is taking Monster's case, based on discrimination and retaliation. The retaliation allegation is because we went to the police when their aide injured Monster.
I feel justified. I feel as if I am being listened to, that somebody thinks that I maybe am right about this - Monster is being discriminated against.
I don't know what will come of this and at this point I don't know how much I even really care. The point is, the school has been notified of the OCR investigation. They know that they had better be able to prove that they did the right thing. I don't think they did.
It's a small victory. But it feels solid, and it feels good.
