[QUOTE="Sheila, post: 101711, member: 23"] I personally wouldn't share this type info with- the sd -- but that is your call. Too many school districts would jump on the "wait and see." Many would also jump on the 504 because they don't require much on the sd's part. Just something else to factor into your decisions. Getting medications under control is a whole other process sometimes. The right medication might be lucked upon immediately, or there may be some trial and error required. "Waiting" to get an IEP in place isn't a good way to go in my opinion. I'd just tell them that he's been diagnosed by Dr. ABC with: 1. Mood Disorder (Pediatric Bipolar Disorder). 2. Underachievement in School. 3. Rule/Out ODD vs. Disruptive Behavior Disorder not otherwise specified. They can perform their own evaluation. Occupational Therapist (OT) info that you have presently is something you need to put in the "motor" section of your paperwork for the school district. Is this the school district Occupational Therapist (OT)? If not, neither you nor the Occupational Therapist (OT) will likely make much progress by calling the school to have modifications made -- that's done by the IEP Committee after appropriate evaluation. (Also, all professionals' recommendations should be included in the written report.) And, you're welcome. :smile: [/QUOTE]
