[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here: One more piece of info, if that's helpful. He's way ahead in reading -- and on or above grade level in math. So it hasn't affected his ability to learn in those areas. But has affected his classroom behavior generally.[/quote] This is why you will have better luck going with a private neuropsych evaluation. The school may argue that any issues are not affecting his ability to access the curriculum. It's clearly affecting him in many ways, but you will want a more complete picture (social, emotional, educational, etc.) Sometimes it's more cut and dry with the school evaluations when they are falling behind academically.[/quote] Disagree. [b]Aggression toward peers affects his ability to access the curriculum.[/b] Also, forgot to mention in PP... Dr. Shapiro offers parenting classes in MD and DC and Dr. Hackney offers parenting classes in VA. [/quote] This is my child as well. Above grade level, but because aggression and classroom disruption was such a problem, the school was actually happy to provide services to manage the behavior. [/quote]
