OP, Don't stress too much at this point, especially if he's switching schools soon.  Think of it as a clean slate.  I would talk with the school he'll be moving too soon rather than later, e.g., b/f he starts.

If you search the forum, you can gin up the names of psychologists who do the neuropsych testing and get it scheduled.  Warning, it's not cheap.  We had family friends who waited until their kid graduated from h.s. to get the testing, just to tell them what they suspected--ADHD.  However, their kid had a miserable h.s. experience and wasn't really prepared for college b/c he didn't have a handle on the executive function stuff.

Also, do something special as a family with your DS.  His choice.  He probably needs a little ego boost/reassurance.  Let him know that you're going to figure this out together.[/quote]
