[quote=Anonymous]If he is getting informal accommodations they should be formalized. He cannot get "informal accommodations for tests like PARCC or, as he grows older, quizzes, RQAs, SSAT, PARCC Algebra, SAT, etc. Denying you for an IEP because "informal accommodations are working" is illegal. Students must be assessed for adverse impact of their disorder on education in their unmitigated state, i.e. as they were doing before supports were provided or as they would be doing if supports were taken away. Basically, the fact that informal supports have been provided is de facto evidence that there was an adverse impact. Teachers don't provide "informal supports" to kids who are doing well. Ask for the IEP and ask that the school do a full assessment with IQ and academic achievement as measured on standardized, nationally normed instruments. [/quote]
