[QUOTE="HMBgal, post: 699012, member: 13260"] My take on school psychs is that their main job is to administer tests that gauge academic levels and IQ, and qualify or disqualify for IEPs. They don't get into therapies or discussions about the student's emotional difficulties. School psychs look for one or more of the 13 qualifying conditions that impact learning at school. And the kiddo has to fit into one or more of those categories. There's usually a primary qualifying "label," in grandson's case, emotional disturbance, with a secondary other health impaired (ADHD falls here). The real therapy comes from outside the school district, although you may be able to get services from a county mental health system. We had a counselor come to grandson's school once a week. That was from the IEP, couldn't have that happen without it. [/QUOTE]
