[quote=Anonymous]Schools are not required to accept the results of private testing. So, if you refuse the school's testing, the school may be required to review the private testing but there's no requirement to accept/act on the results. Not sure where you are located, but school testing is not always bad. We're in Arlington and I think the testing captured a lot of DS's challenges/strengths and he did get an IEP as a result of the testing. Interestingly, we are considering a private neuropsych evaluation now, a couple of years later, to see if we learn anything more -- we expect the school will consider the results but that's not our primary goal: We're trying to determine if DC has some specific learning disabilities, thinking ahead to middle school and beyond. Good luck![/quote]
