[quote=Anonymous]I talk to a MCPS special educator (not my child's home school), and she questions me why I not insist or request MCPS to do testing on my IEP child if I have concerns for learning disabilities. I already paid last year for a neuropsychological evaluations, but I am told that she was too young to be evaluated for learning disabilities at age 5. I have never thought of asking or request MCPS to do evaluations because I always have the thought they MCPS staff are too busy, MCPS are under budget, and they may not do a detailed evaluation due to either self interests or lack of resources. If I need to , I will just go paying private to get the evaluation done and present mcps with reports. DC has IEP since age 3. I thought Mcps cannot diagnosis my child because they are not medical professionals. Am I right that paying out of pocket children hospital neuropsychological evaluations is way better than the one done for free at MCPS? [/quote]
