[quote=Anonymous]My daughter was diagnosed with ADHD in 1st grade last year. We did the full neuropsych testing with stixrud and their report identified ADHD and low processing speed (24%). In all other tested areas, she scored well (80th percentile and above) and they didn’t identify any learning, reading or math disabilities. The report encouraged us to seek a 504, but the school put many recommendations into place without the 504 for 1st grade (e.g. seating near the teacher, a wiggle cushion, etc.). Many of the other recommendations in the report didn’t seem to apply to 1st grade—e.g. double time on tests, extra time for homework, etc. Should we seek a 504 for 2nd grade? If so, can someone explain the process for DCPS? Do we just email the special ed coordinator? Is there anything in particular we should request beyond that’s in the stixrud report? Thanks![/quote]
