[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here - we had neuropsych testing done privately two years ago which resulted in an ASD and ADHD diagnosis. DC has struggled with anxiety and depression, over the past few years, and we have diagnosis paperwork from an intensive outpatient program from this past Fall. As part of that paperwork, the psychiatrist also confirmed the ASD and ADHD diagnoses but he isn't a neuropsych tester. I appreciate the advice. It is sad that people need to hire advocates in order to get services - I bet now more than ever MCPS is inundated with IEP applications. [/quote] People on this forum are so negative. Most of us have no difficulty getting services through MCPS and other local schools without advocates and lawyers. It is important to go in prepared and if you aren’t capable of this, then you may need professional help. But don’t let the negativity of this board send you into the process with a negative mindset. [/quote] I am the poster who wrote about the LRE and using an advocate. Not being "negative" just stating the facts. We need a consultant to get the right placement for our kid. We were given the brush off for years without one (not enforced 504s). This is the reality for a lot of people in MCPS which is why there are so many consultants around here. [/quote]
