Re working memory improving, our ds' also improved with time/age - and no extra work on it - we thought about it and honestly simply didn't have any time left in his day to do it! Our neuropsych said that working memory is the one part of the skills tested on IQ tests that can and sometimes does improve as children mature.

OK, this is a totally non-professional non-educated guess... but... fwiw... think about the EF skills of totally neurotypical average everyday kids the age of your ds. They really aren't all that great! So the bar for "high average" compared to same-age peers might not be as high as we as parents would expect it to be. Just a thought!

Have you shared the test results with the school yet?
