- include a plan to address your child's problems
In this issue of the Special Ed Advocate you will learn what the law requires for evaluations, the benefits of a comprehensive evaluation, and how to find an appropriate independent evaluator.
We hope you will forward this issue to friends, families, or colleagues.
