[QUOTE="buddy, post: 491116, member: 12886"] Something sounds very strange here. If he has a diagnosis of "being on the spectrum" it is really unusual for that testing not to be taken in a school evaluation. has he had private testing or where did the spectrum diagnosis come from? It is true a medical diagnosis does not equate to immediate services but in early childhood it is nearly always all that is needed. His level of behaviors are enough to qualify him for sure. Someone was not doing their job. Do you know that you can ask for a second evaluation (independent outside evaluation at their expense) if you disagree with the results. six months in early childhood is a LONG time. But for sure in the mean time then go for the Occupational Therapist (OT) and if you think it could help a pragmatic communicaiton evaluation (for social communication). Hang in there. Sounds like you might be in an area with not so great services, I hope I am wrong. [/QUOTE]
