Wow! I'm thrilled that you are doing what you think is best for your child, especially since you feel that she is not getting what she needs from school.
As a parent, you have the right to convene an IEP meeting at any time to state your concerns that she is not getting her needs met, and that the current placement is not appropriate for her. For a deaf child, sometimes the public school environment is not considered the "Least Restrictive Environment" (LRE) because of social and communication reasons. One suggestion is that the school can arrange for your daughter to take sign language classes (either having a sign language teacher come to her school or arrange for her to take ASL at a local college, etc.) in order for her to pick up signing so she can benefit.
