[quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thank you for weighing in, everyone. My kid isn't really struggling badly *yet* but definitely having more trouble in 3rd this year than earlier. His social struggles are variable and seem more related to his inability to keep track of what is going on around him attentionally, than rigidity or trouble reading social cues, but I do think the autism eval makes sense. I, and his teachers, have some concern about possible dyslexia or other nonverbal learning disability.

We got on WLs at KKI and Children's a while ago, and got a call from KKI (a cancellation i think) right when I'd started to look into private evals after our first meeting with his teachers about his performance this year.

I appreciate the input (feel free to send any more) and will likely stick with KKI if I can confirm with my insurance that it will be substantially covered. (For some reason, this is surprisingly hard to get a straight answer on!) What I'm struggling with is that I might somehow end up paying thousands out of pocket at KKI (though likely less than private) and ending up with less thorough, complete, or correct information.

I agree that I'd rather save the $ for tutoring or other therapies that might be helpful unless there will be a substantial difference in the reports.

If the report doesn't seem to ring true, or he continues to struggle, we can seek out a private eval in the future.  [/quote]
