[QUOTE="klmno, post: 259763, member: 3699"] My son had the same difficulties in elementary school. Our school district (sd) has the same reputation but I found that letting them intimidate me only kept them intimidating me more and accommodating my son less, keeping the label on him. Things actually started turning around when my son went to middle school and I let the sd know that I had conteacted a Special Education attny. I think he's going to need mmore testing to get him on an IEP and the sd is probably not going to do it on their own. Preferably, you could get complete neuropsychological testing done provately, which would be more thorough. But, if you can't afford this, you can asked the school to pay for an Independent evaluation (IEE). Yoou might want to ask about that on the Special Education Forum. Doing it privately is the best though- you would need to check with your insurance company and see if they pay for any of it. [/QUOTE]
