To: Tolerance Sucks Rocks

How much you want to bet that the school would either not allow parents to know the results of students’ evaluations or would only release limited information upon formal request. This would be done because whomever releases psychological evaluation information to others (usually the patients themselves) becomes legally responsible for the actions of the person informed. So, for example, if you evaluate someone with Borderline Personality disorder (which happen to be prone to suicide) and tell them their diagnosis, (BPD) you become liable, legally, should they become suicidal re their diagnoses.
I truly doubt school staff is qualified to understand those evaluations and would be prone to misusing and misunderstanding it and then they wouldn’t tell the parents what’s in them....

Most Zychatists are wacko and as likely are many psych majors. I wouldn't trust their evaluations of any but the obviously crazy.
