Thanks for all of your quick replies! They are very helpful.

To answer a few questions - he is getting a 504, not an IEP.

He was not on an effective dose at the time of testing because we had just started the meds and the initial dose had no effect. We have since increased it and have seen quite positive changes.

As for the fit of the program, I have spoken at length with the TD coordinator (she was the one who suggested we have him tested for access) and she says that there are many 2e kids in the program and he would do well in it. The 504 will also allow him to dictate and type more, which I believe will make a meaningful difference. He isn't a slow thinker, but slow to write. And, hopefully with vision therapy and OT, this will be improved to some extent.
