[quote=Anonymous]And while you're doing updated testing, I'd start having your child work with the child psychologist like PP did.  Starting this summer to have your child learn to develop the skills, get used to them, practice them and then start using them Aug/Sept with a new year would be great!

Yes, we could argue that the schools should do this.  But if they aren't, I'd go ahead and do it for your child now.  Getting an IEP, even if the new testing shows he needs it, will take months to do and in the mean time he'd be learning all sorts of useful things from the child. psych.

PP can you post the name of your child psychologist who works with ADHD students?  And the email or website?

Because even if that person doesn't work in OP's state/area, simply calling that person for a recommendation in her state/town/area would go a long way.  Or she could call PP's person and ask what she should be looking for, what experience, training, education, etc.  Not sure all child psych's work with ADHD children in this way.  Honestly, professionals will often help you because it only takes a few minutes of their time.
