[quote=Anonymous]Just chiming to add in that FCPS is the same way.  Your son is what is called "twice exceptional" as is mine.  Very high I.Q. but executive functioning/processing problems (not ADHD - he was misdiagnsed as having ADHD - so watch that).  The FCPS IEPs can handle the gifted end but you have to have a LD, autism or something significant to get you into IEP land.  The FCPS already has the AAP program and immense AP offerings in middle school and high school so no gifted program is needed.

By the way, the "gap" between I.Q. verbal and processing speed does not necessarily indicate ADHD.  Not all testers get it right. (and you will go through this process many times through the years as you progress - the recommended retake schedule is every three years).  WE recently went through the expensive two day process and finally confirmed a 140 I.Q., incredible long term memory, poor short term working memory, and exec. functioning syndrome but absolutely no ADHD.  Just something to think about.  Good luck![/quote]
