[quote=Anonymous]I would ask for comprehensive testing in light of your child's demonstrated difficulties with phonemic awareness and reading, behavior and attention. He's likely still within the range of normal for reading skills, and the school is unlikely to test simply because he is at 'risk' due to family history. But if he is reading but there is a persistent skills gap, that might warrant deeper testing. Basically you want as much of a full neuropsychological exam as you can get the district to do, so throw all the areas of concern into the request without naming the diagnosis you are concerned about.
