[quote=Anonymous] For the OP and the last poster, you might get a better result by considering a full evaluation from a private source. It would be to identify any special needs as well as to indicate present level of performance and make recommendations on accommodations that are needed to improve academic outcomes. A private evaluation would usually be more comprehensive than a school divisions, especially the first time in making a diagnosis when one does not know what to expect. It might also help you see if your MS student needs a 504 or IEP or rather tutors for specific things such as executive functioning or organizational skills, a specific subject etc. One would have to say that school divsions are not going to go out of their way to find issues necessarily.[/quote]
