[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]“Sorry but when the thrust of your question is “do you think my high-performing and academically excelling child might be able to get more time for tests if I spend the money” then I have a chip on my shoulder about that.” As a mom to a 2E kid, I think you sound like a complete and utter a-hole. All of our kids are entitled to be understood, supported, and provided with an appropriate education. Spending far more time than others on schoolwork is a completely common symptom of a bright kid who doesn’t have the appropriate support in place for her LDs/ADHD. OP, my understanding is that a neuropsych needs to occur after the 16th birthday in order to be used for both college testing and accommodations. I’d check on this before spending the money on an updated test. But we had federal BCBS cover a portion of the cost of an updated test a few years back (maybe $800 of $2200?). [/quote] Please tell me how getting more time on her SATs is going to help the op’s child with homework. I’ll save you the effort. It’s NOT. Yet that’s the ONLY accommodation OP can come up with.
