ive been out of the IEP loop for several yrs. my son did have an IEP in 2006 but tested out (my opinion is even though he struggled, the high school doesnt want to help kid unless they are severely disabled). he had Central Auditory Processing Disorder (CAPD) and reading comp problems. he wore an fm unit and went to see a Speech Language Pathologist (SLP) weekly for a couple of yrs.
he is a senior now.... graduating in may. wants to go to college. ACT scores were low so he had to take an accuplacer test at the University. he will have to do English 890 & 990 and math 990 before starting college classes.
i need to know what the laws are when it comes my asking his high school to test him again. we have 6 weeks before school is out. what testing should i ask for?
ive forgotten the whole process on what i have to do to get my kid the help he needs. i know by law the State has to help him till he is 21yr (my Speech Language Pathologist (SLP) sisinlaw advised me of this) the university wants a comprehensive evaluation from a school psychiatric.
i do remember something along the lines of if the child IQ and another score where more then 10 points apart that showed the child is struggling.
