[QUOTE="KAC, post: 427529, member: 11945"] Help, I am new to this process. My son is almost 10 (4th gr) has had a school evaluation education/behavioral. The school declined him for an IEP and basically says all testing points to ADD/ADHD and I believe ODD. My pediatrician is not convinced that there's no learning disability therefore requested a neuropshyc evaluation. The school has refused and offered to do further testing. I think they are just trying to string me along. I would like a neurophsyc evaluation but cannot afford it. Does the school absolutely have to pay for the neurophsyc exam if requested by parent and/or pedicatrician? I've been told I'm in for a battle. I did agree to the school doing further testing but I really want an unbiased test done. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I am not denying possibility of ADHD but if a learning disability is overlooked, it would be detrimental to my son. [/QUOTE]
