Gifted Issues Discussion homepage Forums Identification, Testing & Assessment Private or School

Our testing experience with the schools here evaluating a 2-E kid were, frankly, disastrous. Much more accurate and useful information came from the subsequent IEE with a private tester who had experience with 2E.

ETA: Since we disagreed with the district's findings, our IEE was paid for by the district. We had to notify them of who we were using so they could pay them directly. They tried to tell us that we had to use an evaluator on their list, but this was not true, and we knew it. They wouldn't reimburse travel expenses if we chose not to use a local evaluator, though. The gas money was more than worth it.
