[quote=Anonymous]Chiming in that most kids don't need an actual neuropsych. It's very detailed and can offer a differential diagnosis and help determine how much of a child's challenge is based on ADHD, anxiety, speech/language, etc. (I've really generalized here). For the most part, a regular psycho-educational assessment is sufficient. But, if you DO need to delve deeper, a neuropsych is the way to go. I don't believe most school districts in this area can do neuropsychs because they are proscribed from using the broad range of evaluations/assessments/subtests the private sector has available. The school district usually specifies which tests their staff can administer and which ones they cannot. [/quote]
