[quote=Anonymous]OP: Others have already advised this, but DON'T wait to get a neuropsych eval. I have a middle schooler and we waited until this year b/c we didn't want him labeled or disadvantaged and we just thought that he'd mature out of certain behaviors. We got a diagnosis that we weren't at all expecting and now I really wish I'd known earlier. We would have changed a lot of how we've handled things over the past several years. I got the same line as you about IEP for accessing the average curriculum. That's not correct. Here's the MCPS handbook that explains: http://www.montgomeryschoolsmd.org/uploadedFiles/curriculum/enriched/programs/gtld/0470.15_TwiceExceptionalStudents_Handbook_Web.pdf I've also heard from other parents that it's far easier to get accommodations at younger grades than older ones.
