[quote=Anonymous]If you want your child referred for further testing/support, it will go faster if you do it yourself. In some schools, the referral process for teachers is overly cumbersome and frankly I think is designed to discourage referrals...which can be good if teachers are trying to "pass the buck" rather than improve their instruction, but not good if a child actually needs support. I worked in public schools for over a decade and also recently referred my own child for testing, so I can say from experience that they moved a lot faster on the parent-initiated referral. (Not saying that you need to refer, but just an FYI!)[/quote]
