[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 85140, member: 1550"] Hi. I'm sure you'll get a lot of responses. My first suggestion has nothing to do with school. I would get this child an updated evaluation by a neuropsychologist. NeuroPsychs do intensive testing (we had twelve hours) and look at every function and behavior of the child, pinpointing strengths and weaknesses and often finding disorders that other professionals overlook because they just don't take the time to check things out. Since ADHD medications haven't worked, and the child is struggling so badly socially, I would want ADHD checked--it could be something else. As for the school, I think it's time for you to ask for THEM to test (and this shouldn't stop you from getting a private neuropsychologist evaluation) so that your son can get a 504 or IEP. I would be livid at that teacher and would have taken aggressive action long ago against him/her. [/QUOTE]
