[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 239628, member: 1550"] I agree with Janna. SKIP the school district, it is usually not a good evaluation. in my opinion private NeuroPsychs (you can find them at University and Children's hospitals) are the very best testers for ALL disorders so, if you go, you are covering everything. We had ten hours of testing in two hour increments. No other professionals bothered to do more than listen to me and observe my son for an hour tops. This is real intensive testing. The behavior--the way your child relates to the evaluator--is significant. It isn't just IQ testing. A child can have a high IQ and still have a disorder. If a child doesn't relate well to others or can't make eye contact or is very uncomfortable with strangers or won't play with toys--all of that could point to a particular problem. Good luck!
