[quote=Anonymous]I suspect my DS with ASD/ADHD will need an IEP all though school if he remains at his current public school which goes from prek3-12. We are at an immersion language charter that feeds into DCI. DS is currently in 3rd grade and tests above grade level academically across the board without supports but his IEP only addresses social communication issues and OT/fine motor - he gets keyboarding instruction and gets to use a laptop. Speech for pragmatics/social skills. DS has friends at school including a BFF and loves his school. His school has never given any indication that an IEP is not needed even though DS does well academically. My understanding is that once you give up an IEP, it is very difficult if not impossible to get it back if your child is at or above grade level academically. We will be switching to mainstream private with small class sizes for middle and high schools so are planning to give up the IEP then.[/quote]
