Not sure how it is at the schools there, but here....I would go independent. Seems like schools are always wanting to label the kids. I didn't want that for Ricky so I took him to a specialist and had him tested and evaluated. That way the school has no control whatsoever. They can put them in special classes and I thought that would be detrimental to Ricky. You could even speak with her pediatrician and ask for his advice and/or referrals.
