3 year re-evaluation process/ARD

[Guest guest]

Anybody gone through this?

The reason I ask is because the last time we hit the 3 yr marker the ARD

committee decided we didnt' need to do a re-eval since we all said

without a doubt this child still has autism. No this is not a joke, we

really did agree to waive the testing to be done.

Now we are approaching the next 3 yr marker and I am wondering do we

really need to re-evaluate the child? is this for funding purposes? And

which tests would be appropriate for a child w/autism especially a

non-verbal child?

thanks for any advice,
