[QUOTE="flutterbee, post: 6634"] Well, I was mentally, physically, and intelluctually prepared for a battle this morning. It was quite the opposite in fact. It appears that this truancy issue has been the best thing that's happened. The Assistant Principal was not aware of what was going on with difficult child until this week (I guess I made some noise LOL). And she didn't know the full extent of what has transpired. I filled her in. She is friends with the school pyschologist. The Assistant Principal also seems to have considerably more knowledge of these kinds of diagnosis's than I would expect one in her position to have. The school pyschologist couldn't be there this morning, but is meeting me tomorrow AM at 7:30 - they told me to pick the time, if I needed early in the morning or late in the evening they would make themselves available. They want to start the evaluations immediately. By the way, they had not yet received my letters requesting the evaluation for an IEP. So it appears that finally the right people have gotten involved. The neuropsychologist office called today and the report is finally ready. The school psychologist said she won't repeat any of the testing the neuropsch has already done so as to not overwhelm and overstress difficult child. The mediation officer said, I think, only two sentences the entire meeting. This was completely me and the Assistant Principal. I do have to say that she (the Assistant Principal) did seem pretty surprised by some of the "information" I had been given. Woo hoo!!! Good day!! [/QUOTE]
