[QUOTE="mistmouse, post: 19488, member: 289"] Martie and Sheila you are so right about needing the reports ahead of time. Even if the diagnostician meets with you to "explain" the reports, you still need the report so you can read through it and do your own research as to what it means before the IEP meeting. I also know that even though I had it written into the IEP when the re-evaluation was requested that I would get the report before the next IEP meeting, the diagnostician wanted to meet to go over that report just two days prior to the IEP meeting. I requested that I have it before the next appointment with my daughter's psychologist, and the diagnostician did set up an earlier appointment. However, I wasn't given all the information and had to request subtest data to understand things better. Had I agreed to getting the report two days before the IEP meeting, I could not have gotten all the information nor found out the significance of the additional data not originally released to me. It is my experience that diagnosticians, because they work for the SD, will put whatever spin on the report that the SD is supporting. So, sometimes what the diagnostician is telling you may not be the full story. I know that was the case in both evaluations done by the SD for my daughter. mistmouse [/QUOTE]
