[QUOTE="bystander, post: 32544, member: 3614"] Thanks MWM. I know what you're saying about the doctor's. Psychologists (most of them) only have Master's Degrees so they can't diagnose officially. The Neurologist we took him too also has a top reputation for Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) evaluations. I would be open to a new evaluation, except his therapists (who work for one of the best clinics in our state) say they see no reason for him to get another one (his last Occupational Therapist (OT) apt. is next month - he's been going 1x per month for the last 6) because he has done nothing but get consistently better with no backslides and no behavior issues. It is *only* in THIS school atmosphere that he has a problem. His therapists, language teacher, and I think that he is just on "high-alert" when he's in this school and classroom. Having just come back from my volunteering duty, I am realizing again how *loud* it is in that classroom too. Even when the kids are "working" on different projects - there's waaaayyy too much talking going on. And all the kids are trying to talk OVER one another. I just think the combo of being with this other boy and the loud/unorganized atmosphere in that classroom has my son's anxiety level in high gear. But my real concern is dealing with this appointment. Not so much how it affects him there (because there's only 2 months left - and we WON'T be going back) ... but how they will portray him in his records. THAT's my biggest concern. Do I have a right to see ALL his records before they are transferred? [/QUOTE]
