[quote=Anonymous]For the younger child write a letter and request an OT evaluation.  An assessment is different from an evaluation.   I only learned the difference from going through the process at a charter and not using the right words.

This is a link to the process that needs to be followed:

Write an email to the teacher, who ever you are communicating with and cc the principal.

I wish I could find some examples for you right now - but you want to have it on record ASAP that you are requesting an evaluation.  Here is a good link for what to say in the letter.

The school has a set # of days per DC law to complete the evaluation and determination if they have a learning disability.  Given that you are in April - they are going to try and push it off to August when you are back from summer break.  Do not let them do this.  [/quote]
