Lindamood Auditory Conceptualization Test (LAC) was administered to all K and 1st grade students so just sent note to parents to sign it was ok to see the SLP.No wait, no meeting, just the parent signature. Using GLSSD 90% of 1st graders who failed were back in class by Dec. reading better than classmates.
