Twe are in a hard situation where the only way we can see DS getting any of these recommendations put into place is if they consider him on the autism spectrum.... otherwise he doesn't meet the criteria for an IEP. We'll have the neuropsych eval results probably the first week of June, but school will be out by then and we won't be able to do anything until it starts back up again.
A diagnosis should not drive school services; the identified educational needs do. If your DS ends up not qualifying for an autism diagnosis, but still has demonstrable educational needs, the school is still required to meet those needs.
I know I say this a lot, but do a site search at Wrightslaw on "functional"-- even kids who are academically unimpaired may need significant help with self-management and other "functional" skills. These count as educational needs, too.
I hope you get good answers.
