[quote=Anonymous]Also know that in MoCo the school can provide testing OR you can do it privately, but not both. Do you have a private neuropsych already done? (Strongly recommend that.) If you are planning on getting one, make sure you have it timed so you will get the report within the 90 days of initiating the screening. It really helps to know what you are asking for in advance, the neuropsych will help with this, since MoCo operates on an LRE basis meaning the Least Restrictive Environment. So they start you off on a 504 and then increase as it fails your kid. Did you have an IEP at your last school? If not you will need to really show need, otherwise they will try to do a 504 first. Since you seem unsure of whether your kid qualifies for an IEP I would recommend spending a few hundred to have a consult with an educational consultant. Unfortunately in MCPS, the squeaky wheel gets the grease. [/quote]
