[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid's private school would only grant accomodations if we submitted a neuropsych evaluation.[/quote] Do you mean an ADHD diagnosis?[/quote] No, I mean exactly what I just said. My child’s private school would [b]only grant accommodations for their learning disability if a neuropsych eval was submitted[/b]. We tried submitting an abbreviated form from the psychologist because the neuropsych contained private information. They would not accept it.[/quote] I do not actually think this is legal - to accept only a neuropsych - but I have seen Sidwell do it. Parents have generally invested too much time and money to challenge them, plus they worry about getting kicked out. There is nothing in disability law that mandates getting a diagnosis or certain set of tests from a certain type of provider in order to “qualify” for disability accommodations. [/quote]
