[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This amount of testing is insane. [/quote] That's true but unfortunately, the primary way in which I have been able to get an IEP for my child with slow processing speed and ADHD (lots of executive functioning deficits) is show that she fails or tests below grade level on all these tests. Otherwise, the school makes a cause that her slow process speed and executive functioning deficits do not have an academic impact. They are not supposed to wait until the child fails but sadly, that seems to be the criteria to be eligible for help. [/quote] Excellent for your already struggling kid I guess. But is there ever a tipping point where the greater good of most children exceeds the need of your one? Probably not in your mind- but what is happening is all children are receiving less instruction and more crappy tests because of outlier cases like your child’s. Just because it works in your favor doesn’t mean it is a good practice.[/quote]
