[QUOTE="TeDo, post: 502551"] DITTO!!!! Absolutely not! Send the letter requesting that your son[B] "be evaluated for Special Education Services including but not limited to academic, psychological, behavioral, speech-language, and occupational therapy evaluations"[/B] ASAP. This starts a Federal timeline, yes 30 days, to do the assessments and put a report together summarizing ALL the findings. THEN go to a meeting AFTER READING THROUGH THEIR REPORT carefully and bring all YOUR information, including your neuropsychologist. Fight for an IEP that addresses the neuropsychologist's recommendations. IF the still balk, get an advocate but I know there has to be someone that won't charge for this. In our state, we have many. Our SD fought the new diagnosis and fought against the needed supports their own autism specialist recommended. If they say your son doesn't qualify, ask for a FULL explanation IN WRITING. The rest we can advise you on IF you need to push further/harder. Good Luck!!! [/QUOTE]
