[quote=Anonymous]You get the entitlement to accommodations. You may be able to get them without a diagnosis, but the right to them would not exist. Extra time is common. I don’t find it valuable for anything except tests. With respect to homework and projects, it just results in things being backed up in the end because at the end of the marking period everything has to get done. Sometimes teachers will check planners to be sure that assignments are written down. You might get some binder management, but honestly, I was better at working with my son on that than the school. Th biggest thing I can think is this. If things deteriorate and you do find that medication is warranted, you will have to get the evaluation done then and will have a delay in getting medication prescribed. However, you can get a eval through your pediatrician and it’s pretty easy. It involves parents and a teacher completing a questionnaire and the doctor scoring it. [/quote]
