[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]my ADHD DD was only giving the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children in 4th grade.  She graduated from high school, and is going to enter NOVA in the fall.  Today when she meet with the disability counselor she told me that she needs to be re tested, and last time she was tested was in 4th grade.  When I attend the IEP meetings I didn't know she had to be tested every 3 years, because in the re evlal they would say that she needs special education services so I wasn't aware about that...   If you have an DC with IEP are they retested every time they are evaluated if they fail to re test do you ask someone else other than the case manager?   MY other DD is a 4th grader so when is her time to do I don't want to make mistake like I did with my oldest one.[/quote]

Testing every three years is only required if the team needs to determine whether a student continues to qualify for services, requires a change of code, or when additional conditions are suspected. Testing can be done at any time for these reasons---they do not need to wait for the 3 year mark.[/quote]
