What is the professional help that you're talking about? Rhode Island's not too far away and we have some money we could use. We almost sent him to a private school this year but fell in love with the teaching sytle of his public school teacher. So that's $4,000 saved.

Dr. Lovecky
She does a thing called "Educational Assesment" which is IQ tests. She will help you understand your individual child and give you some suggestions for educational ideas.
Call now and get on her waiting list, it isn't short, so even if you aren't sure, call and get on it.
Will the school do any testing? After all, they did want him in "special ed" - LOL!
