[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Exactly. This is the kind of thing that happens in elementary schools. Kids are pushed onto SLI because it is easier. Middle schools won't accept this label for long. The vast majority of students at MS/HS level will either no longer qualify or will be covered under SLD or OHI.  Just a heads up to push for the testing that is needed to determine what your child's needs really are.[/quote]

Do private testing and submit it and then let the school supplement.  They often dismiss concerns, or at least in our experience.

(we will no longer qualify at MS/HS level. I'd be surprised if we qualify next year.)[/quote]

If your kid is in elementary with severe receptive delays that the school doesn't recognize, how do you know that you won't qualify for an IEP in MS/HS let alone next year?

Its no longer severe, very mild.  He does great in school.  I doubt he will qualify as he is borderline with testing.  I'd like the school to drop it as I don't want him pulled out for speech anymore as they speech is stuff they did years ago based off a group that makes no sense for him.  He's done fine without an IEP in the past with good teachers.  Teachers this year don't follow the IEP or were willing to do the things they did last year that were helpful so what is the point (i.e. give us idea of the work coming so we can prepare- i.e. reading, spelling, math concepts).[/quote]
