Under the Education of All Handicapped Education Act (1975) and the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (1997), parents must consent to having their child tested for a learning disability.  A good place to start would be to talk to the principal of the school your child goes to.

A couple of places to look that are listed below. Many of the references deal with research aimed at children and adults with learning disabilities, although not all do. \n\nA neat summary of intelligence and learning, by Robert Sternberg, a scholar about intelligence, can be read at: http://teachpsych.lemoyne.edu/teachpsych/faces/text/Ch06.htm

I think that there is one on Division street on the east side of Portland (Oregon that is).  Check with social services and they should be able to better assist you.

Well, there must be many tennis shops around Detroit or tennis clubs. Most tennis shops offer demos, usually they cost a few dollars, and the same with clubs. Just search in the YELLOW PAGES for TENNIS.

Assuming you are speaking of an elementary or secondary private school your best bet would be to go to http://www.ncacasi.org/ It has all the information you will need, and it is the regional accreditor that covers Michigan. I hope this information helps. It is not an easy process to become accreditated and for good reason. Since it isn't easy I would suggest you review their website and then contact them for personalized assistance. \n\nThe contact info. for their Representative in Michigan is:\n\nDr. Mike Bugenski\nMichigan NCA\n826 Municipal Way\nLansing, MI 48917\nState Office Email Contact: mbugenski@ncamichigan.org\nURL: http://www.nca.umich.edu/\nPhone:866-642-4622\nFax:517-492-1354\n\nGood luck....

hi, i live in akron ohio, and recently took my GED test for free. i was enrolled in the ABLE program. (adult basic literacy education.) all i had to do was take their practice GED test, and upon passing it they gave me a waiver form to send in with my application for a GED test date. i would call your local library and see if they know any adult education programs in your area. good luck!
