[QUOTE="JJJ, post: 267562, member: 1169"] You will not be asked to consent to specific tests. You will be asked to consent to testing of suspected areas of disability (i.e Does difficult child have a language problem that is having a negative educational impact?) Then each area of concern is assigned to a school staff member to test and they choose which specific tests will be administered. Our school will give the Aspergers screening tests. They call it an "educational diagnosis" to differentiate from the medical diagnosis you would get from a specialist. Where do you live? There are Autism Centers all over the country that can do a much better job of testing than a school can. But if the goal is to get services, you need to be able to identify all of the areas of suspected disability so they can be tested. [/QUOTE]
