[quote=Anonymous] Nope. You call a reputable psychologist's practice like Stixrud's, schedule a neuropsych to understand where his deficits and strengths are coming from, and tweak the IEP, because you can't trust the school to catch everything - their psychologists barely have degrees. And depending on what the evaluation finds, you may also want to seek treatment elsewhere (social skills group at Alvord & Baker's, medication for ADHD, occupational therapy for hypotonia or writing, etc). My son was born premature with a host of challenges, and repeating a grade did not work for him - despite his many needs, he also got bored and had to be placed back with his peers. You might want to post on the Special Needs forum because we all have such stories.[/quote]
