[quote=Anonymous]OP here. Just wanted to give an update on 10 year old DD. No diagnosis resulted from the evaluation. She tested low on attention measures and the psychologist said she has mild ADHD inattentive type, but not severe enough to diagnose or medicate. She wrote up some accommodations to give to her new school. She also tested 4th percentile in visual-motor processing, which was not totally unexpected as I've seen her have difficulty drawing, copying, and writing. This is a kid who absolutely hates to draw and now I know why! She can't break things down visually. We have started doing a few things at home to help her improve.

The good news was she tested average or above average on every other measure and at a 7-8 grade academic level overall even with her average IQ. So, she's managing well. We will work with the school and hope things go well. The psychologist mentioned she would be willing write up more accommodations if things are not going well into the year.

Thank you for the support everyone![/quote]
