[QUOTE="Audrey, post: 325348, member: 8114"] I don't know if we have a true Spec. Ed director other than this school counselor, but the letter/email is to go to the school psychologist who floats throughout the district. We've had a couple meetings already, informal ones to put some actions into place for Colin. She's equally opposed to difficult child having an Asperger's diagnosis but she's a lot more professional. When I told the neuropsychologist that both these ladies were sure he didn't have AS because his language was so developed at an early age, he nearly croaked...he trained the psychiatric! Anyway, I'm going to email her tomorrow and then drop a letter off at the school with the principal to give to her. She's a great lady and will make sure things get done. Maybe I'm a little defensive because I had to deal with these two ladies last year in regards to easy child 2 who was the "whisper buddy" to his friend with SM. I sat through IEPs with this other boy's mom since my son was included in them. I watched her fight tooth and nail with them to get things done. I don't want to do the same thing! I'm also planning an evaluation with our pedi (who specializes in ADD/ADHD etc) to discuss medications. I was his nurse for nearly 15 years and he is one of the best diagnostician's I've met. If difficult child really NEEDS a TSS all day in order to control his impulsivity then maybe he does need a little chemical help as well. My goal with a TSS would be to have someone in the room with him helping him with visual learning since he can't process all the auditory stuff normally. [/QUOTE]
