[QUOTE="Martie, post: 68075, member: 284"] Dara, I'm sorry I haven't been around much for a while. Sheila is dead-on in what she suggests in my opinion. It especially annoys me when the the evaluator puts a "group" decision in the report having reached that conclusion alone. It appears your child has significant delays in areas that the SD is not addressing at all. It also appears that the instruments that were used are appropriate, except the absence of Occupational Therapist (OT) that has already been note. It is important for you to commit the "order of decisions" Sheila outlined to memory. SD tend to try to snowball you along and you need a firm understanding of your rights to avoid this. It is also a good idea to never go alone. You need someone who at a minimum can take notes for you. It is even better to take someone with you who is knowledgeable of Special Education Law, but anyone is better than going alone. Martie [/QUOTE]
