Also, the school doesn't actually test for a specific disability. They are going to say LD, and not specify what they have. I haven't actually looked at the test results, but they constantly told me "we do not diagnose". They just see if your child "qualifies". My experience is they try to look for a reason to say you don't qualify unless the results are indisputable.
My friend in another state has an IEP for her ADHD daughter. She had to have the school evaluate for that but she also got independent diagnosis to confirm it. Her district has been much better at making sure kids get IEP or 504.
My district wants to deny everyone unless their hand is forced. I have no idea why some approve easier and others don't. Most of the schools I have been at would put a 504 in place with any outside diagnosis.
What are you trying to acheive? That will determine which way you want to go.
