[quote=Anonymous]We have the same diagnosis. How old is your child? My child is now in 4th grade and we are seeing academic difficulties, especially around reading comprehension and writing, that were not apparent in testing when he was younger (that testing found that he was well above average cognitively). This profile -- above average cognitively but struggle with tasks that involve perspective taking and organization -- is pretty common for kids with ASD level 1. We have an IEP because he would certainly be worse off without the necessary supports. I worry a lot about what we will do for middle school and had planned to target many of the schools that pp above was rejected from. If we don't get in, it won't because of the IEP itself -- it will be because of DC's academic needs. [/quote]
