Then that's a no-no.

New ADAA says "no consideration of mitigating measures" can be used in determining eligibility. I'd fire back that they weren't doing an adequate job considering a "variety of sources" of "expert opinion" re: the disabling condition in your child.\

That's what I thought and I told the school psych last spring, she ignored my email for several weeks and then finally wrote back and she said "I wasn't aware of that." Huh? She's like DS's IEP manager (his speech therapist) and the school OT not being aware that there are 13 different disability categories! These things are very basic! I can't figure out if they are being deliberately obtuse or truly are just that clueless. So can you clarify what you mean by "variety of sources" of "expert opinion"? Do we go back to her diagnosis in 1st grade and the paperwork stating how she was back then from the pediatrician? How do I "prove" that she is still disabled enough to need accommodations when she is on meds every day?
