[QUOTE="TiredSoul, post: 406651, member: 3930"] Thanks everyone! I think I will take the Occupational Therapist (OT) services for handwriting - thinking it is much easier to drop something no longer needed than it is to add something after the fact. In the meeting yesterday I specifically asked if I would get a copy of all the results of the evaluation and they said yes - you will get it in about 3 weeks and it will be sent out from Special Education services at the district. So, should I respectfully ask them to give me a copy now, even if in draft form? They did not give me a copy of the procedural safeguards this time, but have in the past - but not for quite some time. I do have a copy from my other son's IEP for speech. When we expressed concern about the drop in IQ, he said we could have him re-tested when the 3 year evaluation period is up. I think I will give it a year and then request in writing for it to be done again. I guess we were just so happy with the high superior range of intelligence ranking before and to see it drop to average shocked us, especially since everyone tells us how smart he is, and we also feel he is. We notice his motivation is pretty low since ADHD medications and wondered if we are squelching his potential by medicating him - but I do know we would have a ton of other problems if we didn't. Thanks again! [/QUOTE]
