[quote=Anonymous]I’m not an expert, just a mom with a kid with actual low IQ. I don’t see how the school is calling those scores low IQ. My son’s FS score is 72.

One thing I’d confirm is whether the interim reflects all assignments and assessments. Usually it will but I’ve seen notices go out using incomplete information.

Also do you know what made him successful before and what you’d want now?  Getting an IEP or 504 isn’t always a means for success if there are not programs that will improve the situation. I remember that through 6th or 7th grade our school had specialized reading programs for kids with IEPs. Mine was placed in the program despite not having an IEP - if that exists at your school, maybe that’s an option.

What we also did was send him to one of those educational programs for reading and reading comprehension. It was expensive and a stretch for us but money well spent. Despite his low IQ, he has a good job in as a mechanic but it requires some reading. If he hadn’t gained the comprehension skills, that wouldn’t be possible. Maybe that’s an option for you.

Good luck.
