ooooooookkkkkkkkkk
so, private testing it is, when I can get DH up off the floor from the heart attack he's going to have when he sees the price tag...
the dr we chose used to be an advisor to our districts GATE program and teaches a GATE certification class regarding gifteds and touches on 2e, so the district is familiar with her name and work, her credentials should carry plenty of weight with them.
in light of the ped wanting to push ADHD, I think it's super important that we MAKE SURE that's what it is before I start giving the kid medication (which could still cost 2k, right?)
Plus, her assessment will show if we should consider some acceleration, changing her school or even homeschooling, etc...
today Butter got a "red card" for apparently participating TOO much during the Paidea session. They had this discussion including the 2nd grade and Butter says the reason she was so boisterous is because no one else was contributing. THe note said she was also rolling around on the floor (that's new). Then she was sent outside of the room where she proceeded to jump up and wave her arms around. Duh...she's trying to get your attention!
Thursday and the SST can't come fast enough!
