So I finally got word from the school psychologist that he does qualify for the gifted program, but she still hasn't given me the RIAS/test scores. He took the test nearly 3 weeks ago and after hearing nothing, I finally emailed her earlier this week to follow up-that's when I found out he qualified. He went to the pullout program for the first time this week, but I still haven't met with anyone to discuss any of his results, etc. This whole process has really been a constant tug of war it seems. I hate to badger them but it actually took 6 months just to have him tested! Wondering how long it will be before the IEP meeting will actually happen! I hope he enjoys the pullout program because this has really taken more effort than I had ever imagined and much more waiting than I had ever imagined! Has anyone else had this type of waiting/delay in testing and test results in the public school system? Wondering if this is typical lag time due to under-staffing and large student population.
