[QUOTE="jal, post: 459057, member: 3477"] After reading some other posts, I should add in our situation we did do independant evaluations before he even got to school. We started this at the age of 3. He had Tdocs, psychiatrists and we did an independant neuropsychologist evaluation, so I had a ton of documentation going in & like I said I started with distict just before he went to Kindergarden because I knew he would have problems. Getting kicked out of 5 daycares gives you a heads up. But in order to get any evaluation going through the school the letter requesting the evaluation needs to be done via registered mail. If you are not certain going at it alone, by all means please contact an advocate to help you through the process. I am in the minority here because I have never had to fight my district like so many people do. Why? I don't know. They've always accomodated my requests, done the evaluations they said they were going to and never blocked us from anything that would help difficult child. They have never tried to play games with us. I've had a para in mainstream, a para to assist him at daycare (not even affiliated with-school & in the summertime), he has private transportation to and from his out of distict school and is dropped off at my office in the afternoon. I even have full staff IEP meetings in the summer if I want/need it. I alos agree with the poster that recommends that you not be the aide. This needs to come from the school. [/QUOTE]
