[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The psychologist seems like he may be recommending the kitchen sink when it may not be clearly warranted.  It sounds like your DC has been doing well with informal supports from the teacher.  You can ask for a 504 or IEP but you may not get one if there's no need for it.[/quote]DS is doing okay. There are no grades in 5th, so when he gets a 69% on a math test, we just move on. His written work product is really poor. But he can manage spelling/vocab tests fine. He's not getting perfect scores, but he can do the work, even if he's the slowest in the class.

This one particular ELA teacher has been propping him up, knowing he's 2E. I don't know that if there were actual grades that he would be doing well.

Yes, the psychologist is suggesting a lot. He's also not prioritizing things like working on DS's core and motor skills, which are very poor and impacting his ability to sit still and complete written work. But we're starting pretty low, with only informal classroom accommodations and once weekly executive functioning coaching.
