My almost 6 year old is newly diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder and anxiety. I wrote for an initial eval for an IEP. The school agreed and did all the evals. The deemed her ineligible for an IEP because she is too smart, "she doesn't need special ed" but offered her a 504 with PT, OT, Speech, and Counselor support. She is having an extremely hard time tolerating the school environment and is developing school refusal. I have a follow up meeting with the school tomorrow. I was hoping to see if anyone had any advised to help show them how much this is impacting her.
