[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For a child who was accepted in K at a big 3 school and parents were asked to complete a neuropsych midyear after frequent communication and then asked to medicate midyear in first for learning and behavior after more frequent communication…Is this a precursor to counseling out? [/quote]

Is the medication and other supports helping? If yes, you're probably fine. If no, you should talk to psychiatrist about adjusting meds and/or consider other schools.

Even if you aren't counseled out, reevaluate for yourselves whether it's a good fit school. You chose it when you knew almost nothing about your child's academic needs -- as you learn more, don't be afraid to make changes. We're in HS at a big 3, and I feel bad for the lifers who are clearly struggling but who are there because that's where their parents chose 10 years ago.[/quote]

Meds will start in second half of first because supports were not enough.

One parent attended the school with a different LD and believed small classes would help counter challenges that preschool saw since preschool didn’t think the school would be a good fit for child’s profile. What is the next step if medication is not successful or not successful enough in first grade? [/quote]
