[QUOTE="Shari, post: 166755, member: 1848"] If I can figure out the logistics of it, yes, I plan to take him. Even if he goes every day, tho, they estimate it will take over a year to catch him up to the kindergarten level. The lady testing him was a former Special Education teacher with a lot of experience trained in Sylvan's teaching methods, also. MWM - I think you picked up on my concern...I need to update my profile, but he currently doesn't [I]have[/I] a spectrum diagnosis from the MD's. The dev pediatrician's current diagnosis is severe ADHD and disordered attachment. The mental health team have a diagnosis of BiPolar (BP)/not otherwise specified, disordered attachment, and Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD). Currently the way our team is set up, tho, without the MD's buy-in on the diagnosis'es, he is not eligible for help for spectrum disorders because MD argues he's not on the spectrum. I'm just really curious, tho, how a kid who is so drastically ADHD that the doctors can't even get a clear evaluation due to his hyperactivity (they blame literally every aspect of his behavior on his hyperactivity), can be ENGAGED in schoolwork that he does not like by a teacher that doesn't know him for 2 and a half solid hours. Now I'll go change my profile. [/QUOTE]
