[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]That is never going to work for high school services in public, unless there was a recent updated neuropsych, which seems unlikely (the reporter would have mentioned it). [/quote]

Why would it be unlikely and why would the reporter necessarily have mentioned it?  I get my child's neuropsych updated every 3 years, although I am not required to by his public school district.  It's useful in case any new accommodations may be appropriate.  And I am doing this as a person who does not have $50K to spend on private school.  It seems likely to me that the parents would in fact have done this periodically.[/quote]

Because if the school didn’t ask for it, why would they have done it when they believed his academic needs were being met — as per literally all the evaluations received by the school itself? If you are told by the school evaluations and by the enrollment contracts that keep being offered that your child is doing okay, why would you have an assessment? It does not make sense to do it and certainly the article doesn’t mention anything other than the one early elementary assessment.

I do not think this child has been assessed since early elementary. Also, the fact remains that the school booted a child with SNs in February, so too late for any other privates and most NYC publics. That is appalling. [/quote]
