Are you asked to disclose any dx from a pediatrician or that you took a neuropsych test or screen, when you apply to wash dc private schools?

Do you have to disclose this?

We have an on the cusp kid but a lot of environmental factors due to a disabled parent. yes he needs some help, we don’t know what, he is young age 10, but it might just be anxiety or something mild, not a Disorder. 
I’d hate to pay for a neuropsych and get told it’s nothing much or mild ADD or mild ASD and nothing much to try, just a few parenting things, PLUS have to report that on a middle or upper school application.

How is this handled?  This is not a situation where an IEP or 504 or whatever private schools do, is needed. [/quote]
You are contractually obligated to disclose. Many schools represent that they may not be able to accommodate. If the school could not accommodate they would likely refer you to a school, like McLean, that specializes in providing this support. [/quote]
