[QUOTE="wemustbecrazy, post: 110431, member: 4303"] I have formally requested testing for my son. The school has set up an SST (student success team) meeting for Jan 7th. They have also begun testing him per my request. I would like to know what I need to bring to this meeting? Here is some back ground information that might be helpful. We are in the process of adopting my son. He has been in the foster care system for the last 3 years and in several placements during that time. He has been retained twice, once in 2nd grade and the second time in 3rd grade. He is currently in 3rd grade. He was recently diagnosed with ADHD and PTSD. He began medicine in November and is doing very well. He moved in with us just before school started and we have been working very hard with him. He is also receiving tutoring at school. He has made the A/B honor roll, however, he has difficulty with reading comprehension and his math skills are pretty poor. I was told by the principal who I worked with several years back that they don't usually set up IEP's for students who are showing success and that if we had applied earlier it might be different. This angers me as I have let my intentions be known when I first registered him for school before he was showing success. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks [/QUOTE]
