[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] 14 year old freshman earning B's, tests well, does poorly with organization and homework submission. WISC (7 Years ago) showed FSIQ 131, but processing speed was average as was working memory. Should we seek private evaluation or go through DCPS.[/quote] You should get a private full neuropsych eval if you suspect ADHD. ADD is now ADHD, inattentive type. Getting DCPS to provide testing will be a long fight and long wait to get help for your DC especially when your child is getting Bs and tests well. Also, you will need current testing less than 3 yrs old if your DC needs testing accommodations for the SATs, ACT, etc.[/quote]
