CUSTODY CONCILIATION SUMMARY REPORT
IN ACCORDANCE WITH CUMBERLAND COUNTY RULE OF CIVIL
PROCEDURE 1915.3-8, the undersigned Custody Conciliator submits the following report:
1. The pertinent information concerning the Children who are the subjects of this litigation is
as follows:
NAME
DATE OF BIRTH
CURRENTLY IN CUSTODY OF
Sean Michael Gilbert
Brandon Lee Gilbert
September 21, 1991
Augnst 17, 1994
Mother
Mother
2. A Conciliation Conference was held on November 7, 2001, with the following individuals in
attendance: The Father, Gerald E. Gilbert, who was previously represented by Charles E. Petrie,
Esquire, but appeared at the Conference without counsel, and the Mother, Lynnea A. Gilbert, who is
not represented by counsel.
3. The Conference was scheduled as a result of the Mother's second Petition for Contempt
alleging, among other things, that the Father continued to be in violation of this Court's prior Order
requiring the parties to participate in counseling. The Father advised the Conciliator that he intended
to waive all custodial rights with respect to the Children. As the Father was clearly both upset and
frustrated at the time, the Conciliator continued with the Conference in an attempt to discuss other
possible resolutions. However, the Father advised that he had consulted with his attorney and fully
understood that while he was waiving his custodial rights, his support obligation would continue.
4. Based upon the Father's position at the Conference, the Conciliator proposes entry of an
Order in the form as attached. The allocation of costs for the Contempt Petition is the recommendation
of the Conciliator.

NO. 20003219 CIVIL ACTION LAW
L YNNEA ANN GILBERT,
DEFENDANT
CIVIT ACTION/CUSTODY
COMPLAINT FOR SPECIAL RELIEF
AND NOW, this 26th Day of February, 2000, comes Lynnea Ann Gilbert, by herself, and respectfully
request the following:
I). I ask the court for a special relief based on the Plaintiff, Mr. Gerald Gilbert, calling the children
(Sean Gilbert and Brandon Gilbert) offfrorn school on two different occasions when they were not
sick. The fIrst being on December I, 2000 and the second on February 23, 2000. Mr. Gilbert is to
have the children every other Thursday through Saturday for overnight visits. The court order started
in August, therefore the time period from August till present approximately 6 months; (his custody
being bi-weekly making this 2 occasions within a three month period) my children has missed school
twice because they didn't want to go to school and Mr. Gilbert approved the absences based solely on
the childrens reqnest with no other valid reason additionally given. He did in fact indicate to the
school that the children were ill when they were not. On both occasions, I have proof they were not
sick. On December I, 2000, the Plaintiff, Mr. Gilbert took both children to his sisters to spend the day.
On February 23, 2000, Sean Gilbert asked his father, Jerry ifhe could stay home and the plaintiff
allowed it. Please note that the children try to stay home every morning, and I have to make them go to
school. This is not right! ! !
2). On one occasion, Mr. Gilbert made a threat stating he would make it so that I would never see the kids
again. This occurred at a soccer game being held at the Farm Show while I was head coach.
3). The Plaintiff, Mr. Gerald Gilbert has violated the court order by not attending counseling sessions that
his own attorney, Mr. Arthur Dils, Esquire, set in place during the recent conciliation hearing held in
August 2000. I advised Mr. Gerald Gilbert on several different occasions that he was to notifY
Ms. Jessica Hart, at the following nurnber 234-3839/New Passages to give her his insurance
Information so that the visits could be precerted. Instead the Plaintiff, Mr. Gerald Gilbert, had
Indicated "he didn't have to do this".
4). Both Children, Sean and Brandon Gilbert have Medical problems.. Sean Gilbert was tested, and found
to have "Attention DefIcit Disorder" (ADD) and Brandon Gilbert was diaguosed having "Attention
DefIcit Hypertension Disorder" (AmID). They were both tested by the school and our family
Physician as well as Jessica Hart. The Plaintiff, Mr. Gerald Gilbert has taken it upon himself NOT to
Give Sean his medication. He feels he doesn't need it. I pay for all the children's medical bills. To
My knowledge, the plaintiff never went back to school to get a degree and become an MD. Who is
He to say what medications his kids are and aren't going to take??? My family physician is in the
Process of writing a letter regarding this situation. The damaging side effects by him only taking it
While he's with me and then going off ofit while he's with his dad aren't good. As soon as I get
The letter from the Doctor, I will send it in. It can also be part of Exhibit A. (Exhibit A)
5). The Plaintiff, Mr. Gerald Gilbert was to have the kids, Sean who is nine and Brandon who is six, for the
very fJrst time Thursday through Saturday the week of October 6, and couldn't follow through. It
interfered with his softball tournament. Instead, he had the kids Thursday and returned them to me on
Friday.
6). I have received several E-mails from the teachers indicating that the Plaintiff, Mr. Gerald Gilbert can't
be reached at any of the telephone numbers they were given. He has missed all of the parent teacher
.owr-,
conferences after he was well infonned a head of time. (Exhibit B)
7). On December 1, 2000, the Plaintiff, Mr. Gerald Gilbert took the children with his girlfriend, Ms. Jada
Laganella, to the movies only to get into a big fight and she drove off leaving my children stranded
With no transportation and NO WINTER COAT. Mr. Gilbert's sister had to come and pick them up.
Mr. Gilbert shows no sense of responsibility, this was the same day he called the kids off of school.
If they were sick, why did they ever leave the house? To go to a movie no less......
8). The Defendant has received several calls and Emails from the school indicating there has either been a
behavioral problem or the children are having great difficulty in school with a subject. It has been
brought to my attention that Brandon Gilbert, the six year old, (who has already repeated Kindergarten
once) still isn't to where he should be academically. The school is suggesting that he be tutored over
the summer months at least twice a week. Which will be my added expense. (Exhibit C)
9). The children has stressed that on several different occasions, the plaintiffs girlfriend has been very
nasty to them. On two occasions, Sean Gilbert had asked to call his mother and both the plaintiff
and his girlfriend told him "no".
1 0). The Plaintiff, Mr. Gerald Gilbert has had his parents pick the two children up from his part time place
of employment (Latchkey) because the children were having behavioral problems. He has also had
his parents watch the children on several occasions while he worked his other part time job. (water
exercise at the YMCA) I have kept a close relationship with his family and allowed them to see the
children when ever they want.
11). On several different occasions, I have included Mr. Gilbert in activities such as going to Dutch
Wonderland with the children and I and a train ride at Christmas time and many more.......
I've done this for the children's sake, however, on several occasions, he attempted to take advantage
Of the situation by making p.asses at me and other unsolicited and unwarranted advances. This is a
very difficult task to try and keep a civil relationship, for the children's sake, however I still attempt
to do so even though it seems to have no affect on this family's dynamics. I even went as far as
trying to talk civil to Mr. Gilbert's girlfriend for the children's sake and was told to "F _ "off. (I
Think you get the picture) And low and be hold, the Plaintiff's mother was present.
12). The Defendant is being represented by herself.
13). The Defendant asks the court system to suspend the court order based on the first several arguments
and until such time that a conciliation hearing can be set up to review and come up with a better plan.
I am not asking to change the court order itself, at this time. I'm only asking that they suspend it until
The court system can have another conciliation hearing and stress the importance of several issues.
WHEREFORE, Defendant, Lynnea Gilbert, prays to the Honorable Court to grant her special
relief so that the children can seek additional counseling and get their lives back in order and at such time
that another conciliation hearing can be set to go over some important issues that need to be addressed. It's
very tough on one parent who plays by the good set of rules, and the other could care less. I know the
Plaintiff loves his children he just has a hard way of showing it sometimes. We also need to think of
what's in the best interest ofthe children.
Respectfully submitted,
Lynnea Gilbert

RE: Brandon
.1.'
I will talk to Mrs. Preston about other alternatives... if you are interested in a tutor over the summer Mrs. Tricia Beaver is
available at $25:00 per hour. I will give you her number if you are interested. I will look into other alternatives
academically related for the summer. Hang in there...it's only January, and we have a lot of teaching time left in the year.
<<< "Gilbert, Lynnea (CBC)" <Lynnea.Gilbert@CapBlueCross.COM> 1/30 3:54p >>>
See, this is my concern. I know he won't be held back another year for
Kindergarten, so what can I do. I don't think his speech is adequate to
understand him sometimes. I got him a little computer game for Christmas,
and believe it or not, he kneW how to work it. (I didn't) He's no dummy.
It's just I see him trying so hard to complete his #'s and letters, and it
seems like he's struggling. Is there any way we can fit him into some kind
of tutor class, or is there anything offered over the summer months that I
c",n enroll him in to get caught up? Do you think maybe this is why he plays
guns, makes noises etc..... He can't gr"'sp what is going on around him? Do
you think I should look into any kind of speech therapy for him? I know
lately, I'm working a lot of overtime at work, and am running from
Msketball game to the other betWeen two of his older brothers. And I know
Brandon has kind of taken a back seat. He's drug all around even to places
he doeSn't want ,to go. Please let me know what I can do to help him. I'll
do anything. I know I haVe to work with him more, one on one. Thanks,
Lynnea

To the Honorable Judge:
I am writing this letter to explain my intention. Attached you will fmd a petition for "Special Relief'. I'm
not familiar with how this works, however I need to show you some important documentation that will help
you understand where I'm coming from as a concerned parent. I'm requesting that you stop the court order
from being in effect until such time that the Plaintiff, Mr. Gilbert files for a new conciliation hearing. If
I'm understanding how this works, I need to me the "Special Relief' to stop the court order from being in
effect. I don't feel as though I should have to pay an additional fee to have this situation taken back before
a conciliator since It's costing me $50.00 to file this. Mr. Gilbert has violated his court order on several
occasions that I overlooked, and I just can't overlook them anymore.
For starters, I am now a single mom raising three boys on my own. I struggle day to day to make ends
meet with everyday expenses. Mr. Gilbert left me with ALL the bills. (Mortgage, car, Home Equity, credit
cards, UGI, PP & L, Bell Telephone, etc.. ...) We went to Domestic Relations, and he is responsible for
paying $550.00/month. (Which is fme even though our mortgage alone is $735.00) In some instances I
was forced to work two and three jobs, but again that's OK. Now the courts are telling me that because HE
violated the court order on several occasions, I have to pay $50.00 to file for a "Special Relief?" This I
don't understand!!!!! And additionally I'm suppose to pay more than $50.00 to make sure he gets to
continue visitation rights????? This is how it was explained to me. Is this correct?????
I have devoted my time to raising my boys and working. I am very involved with all three boys. I coach
T-Ball and Soccer. I think it's a shame that there is now a cost in filing any kind of petitions. After all,
every time I work a part time job, it takes away from the children. I can't afford an attorney. I had one
starting ont, but was unable to keep. All I ask is that the Honorable Judge grant me Special Relief based on
what I've supplied.
Sincerely,
d\~~

DEFENDANT
IN THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS
CUMBERLAND COUNTY,
PENNSYLVANIA
NO. 200032] 9 CIVIL ACTION LAW
CIVIL ACTION/CUSTODY
COMPLAINT FOR CONTEMPT OF COURT ORDER
AND NOW, this 8th Day of October, 2001 comes Lynnea Ann Hall, (fonner]y Gilbert) by herself, and
respectfully request the following:
I). I ask the court to act on Mr. Gera]d Gilbert's 2'nd contempt charge as he has not complied with the
counseling sessions set fourth by his attorney and the conciliator. This is the 2ND Time he is in
violation of this court order and I am demanding that something be done. The first time he was
left go with the conciliator saying he MUST go, and this was all. This is the second time I have filed
this same charge against him. ] am asking the courts to grant me FULL Custody with no visitation
until set time that Mr. Gilbert seeks a parenting class plus counseling on his own to show him you
either step up to the plate and be a father, or you stay away. It is apparent that Mr. Gilbert's
priorities aren't what they should be. This is causing psychological damages to my children.
2). I am asking the courts to make Mr. Gilbert attend counseling sessions on his own before continuing
with visitation rights. Mr. Gilbert's priorities revolve souly around him and his wife instead of his
children, yet he cries to the conciliator at every hearing about poor Jerry. And thus far he's gotten
everything he wanted. The following is a history of some things that transpired where Jerry's kids
should have come first, BUT they didn't....
A). ]n August of 2001 , at our last conciliation hearing, he would not allow me to put in the court order
That under no circumstances is Jada Laganella allowed being near my children. His main defense
Was he was planning on marring her. Two months later he married someone else. And I stress,
Two months later. (hardly anytime to know someone) Which brings me to another point. If he
Only knew Pam, his new wife for two months and got married, what about his kids??? That's
Hardley anytime at all for anyone to know what kind of a person she is, yet my kids are going to be
Around her and not have a choice.
B). After Jerry and Pam got married, Jerry wasn't allowed to move in with her for 3 months. They
Didn't know enough about each other yet they were going to wean themselves into their marriage.
This effected my children. They didn't understand. My children weren't allowed at Pam's house.
C). At the end of the schoo] season, both Jerry and I attended a conference with Brandon's teacher,
Mrs. Cavanaugh. She told both of us that it would be in the best interest of Brandon to seek
Tutoring over the summer months so he wasn't overwhelmed going into first grade. We both
Agreed, only I paid for it all. I'm asking the courts to grant Y, of the overall cost as reimbursement
Also, it became a problem for him to either take or pick up. It was more important for Jerry tD buy
Pam an engagement ring and to take a honeymoon. Please note that this wedding transpired after
Jerry was aware of Brandon's tutoring. He wasn't even dating Pam at the time of our conference
With Ms. Cavanaugh. It was up to the help of my father, Mr. Larry Hall. He either took Brandon
Or picked him up. I did the rest. (this wasn't my father's responsibility)
D). Also through Brandon's counseling sessions with Jessica Hart, she made mention of having him
Tested at school. On her advise, I did just that. On Thursday, October 4,200] we were to meet
With 8 schoo] officials to discuss the results. Jerry was notified by the school, however he found
It necessary to only stay approximately Y, hour to 45 minutes. This meeting ended up lasting a
Tota] of I hour and 45 minutes yet he couldn't stay. His excuse was he couldn't miss his part-
Time job. Yet he could take off from it the following day to have a vasectomy, which is an
E]ective surgery. Again, where does his priorities lie??? Not to mention, it was his scheduled
.
, ,,,,yl
:J.~MiL:
Time to have the kids but he cou]dn't do it.
E). Over the summer months, my sitter asked if Jerry could get the kids on his days off to relieve him.
It was ok'd through Jerry, yet it only lasted two weeks with him. He couldn't handle it. His full
Time job offered him overtime which was more important. So my 18 year old son watched the
Boys every Thursday and Friday. My oldest son watched the boys more than their own father did.
F). Jerry's father passed away in September unexpectedly. It was going to be a closed casket with a
Lot of out of town guests, so I thought it would be a good idea to take the boys. Sean, my middle
Child was hysterical because Jerry's girlfriend showed up and he saw her. To Jerry, this is funny.
Low and behold, his new wife has no clue, but that's not my problem. (his girlfriend was Jada)
The kids told me on one event that after he was married to Pam, he wanted to take them to see
Jada and Sean had a fit. Whether this was a joke or not, I didn't find it very funny. Again, this
Shows where his priorities lie. Jada is not one to read the newspaper, she is a drug addict and an
Achaholic. She was just picked up for DUI and Child endangerment, yet I couldn't get anything
Put in the last court order to justify her not being around my children.
G). I had to devise a letter to send to Domestic Re]ations to have the children added to Mr. Gi]bert's
Health care coverage. He could have cared less yet] was paying out the nose for extended
Denta] work for both boys. ] am seeking reimbursment for Y, of the medica] bills which I will
Furnish copies of at our court hearing.
3). I am asking the courts for reimbursement ofY, the medica] bills. This isn't part of the daily care
to take care of them.
4). ] am also asking the courts to make Jerry reimburse me the $50.00 it took for me to file a contempt
charge a second time.
5). Jerry neglected his own children in August of200] when it was a HOT summer day and he left his kids
at his moms. She had one air conditioning unit in her bedroom where she slept yet my kids were in
another bedroom and a fan blowing. They were in their underwear sweating. My kids called me to
come and get them. I asked where their daddy was and was told he was at Pam's house. This is
NEGLECT. I have proof he was over at Pam's house. I have my cell bill that shows I made the call
To her house at ]] :45 pm wanting to know where Jerry was. Neither answered the phone because she
Has caller ID and knew it was me. ] told him he had 5 minutes to call me back, and that he did. I told
Him to get to him moms house or] was taking the children. This is Jerry's visitation, not his moms.
It ended up that I took the children and he verbally said he was going to forfeit all of his rights to see
The kids, so ] held him to that. Now he's begging to see the kids again, and I'm filing this for the
Courts to decide.
6). I want it know, at this time Jerry's mom has no heat in the house which will cause a problem over the
winter months.
I have done everything] am suppose to as a parent, now I'm asking the courts to grant lne full custody
based on the evidence I have submitted. If you recall, Jerry wanted to use a different counselor for the
sessions he was ordered to comply with. He was granted that. He has no attempt to comply with this order
and] turn to the courts for assistance on granting me full custody. It's quite obvious that his kids come
second in his life. Now that it has been proven by the schoo] that Brandon is a special needs child, I'm
asking that you see it in the best interest of him to stop visitation until Jerry can seek the help he needs.
I am asking the courts to review everything that was submitted from the beginning to now. It will show
that Mr. Gilbert is destroying them mentally. I have to mainly focus on my children and give Brandon the
special attention he needs. By doing this, again I ask the courts to look at everything. I can't keep taking
offwork and going through the court system to fix everything he has messed up. I'm asking the court to

put themselves in my shoes and know the frustration Jerry has put me through. I want Jerry to see his kids,
but ONLY ifhe's willing to help instead of hurt them.
Thank You!

Levels of Performance
Cognitive and Achievement Measures
*Please see Appendix A for a detailed report of tests and scores.
Brandon was given the Differential Abilities Scale (DAS) as a measure of his overall
ability in thinking and problem solving. Brandon earned a GCA, General Conceptual
Ability score (which is comparable to a full scale IQ), of 80, which is classified in the
below average range of functioning. This score indicates that Brandon did equal to or
better than 9 percent of children his age. The DAS also includes three additional scores:
at verbal composite, a nonverbal composite, and a spatial composite.
The verbal composite is made up of tasks a child perfOllDS, such as, stating the definition of
a word, and finding the similarity between three words, such as cat, horse and dog. Brandon
earned a verbal composite of 73, which is classified within the very low range of
functioning. Brandon had trouble giving definitions to words, often giving examples of a
word, but could not elaborate further. For example, if Brandon was asked what a mustache
was he was able to say that his friend's firther had one, but would not be able to explain what

a mustache was. This weakness may be due to Brandon's difficulty in retrieving words
from the filing system in his brain.
The nonverbal composite is a measure of inductive reasoning (fornlUlating rules, testing
hypotheses), understanding verbal instructions, and using verbal and nonverbal means to
solve a problem. This area was a strength for Brandon. He earned a score of 99, which is
classified within the average range of functioning and the 4 jh percentile. Brandon was able
to figure out and complete basic patterns, do simple addition and math, and recognize what
picture was missing from a group. .
.
The spatial composite measures Brandon's ability to see and manipulate objects in space,
use analytic thinking, and pay attention to detail. Brandon earned a composite score of 78,
which is classified in the very low range of functioning. Brandon was average in his ability
to put together designs using yellow and black blocks. However, he did have trouble
drawing and reproducing basic figures from memory. This weakness may be due to
Brandon's ADHD and his trouble in remembering things that are presented to him for a.
short period of time. '
Two additional diagnostic subtests were given to further analyze Brandon's cognitive
ability. Brandon earned a score that is classified in the average range of functioning and 58th
percentile on Speed of Infonnation Proce&sing (how fast Brandon is processing infonnation
in his brain). The next diagnostic subtest looks at Brandon's abi1ity to remember and repeat
infonnation just heard. On the recall of digits subtest, Brandon earned a score that is
classified within the very low range of functioning and falling in the I" percentile. Brandon
had trouble repeating a string of numbers that he just heard.
Consistent with his cognitive ability, Brandon's overall levels of achievement are classified
in the below average to average range of functioning. The Comprehensive Inventory of
Basic Skills-Revised (CmS-R) was given as an assessment of Brandon's achievement and
readiness skills. These basic skills show if a child is adequately prepared for kindergarten or
first grade. The readiness assessment given to Brandon tests his peIfonnance in four areas:
general knowledge and language, graphomotor and writing skills, reading, and math.
Auditory discrimination, sentence memory, following oral directions, word recognition and
word analysis were also given to assess Brandon's skill level in these areas.
Brandon's skills in graphomotor and writing, reading and math were classified within the
average range of functioning. Brandon was able to write the alphabet using upper and lower
case letters; write his name, age and phone number; visually discriminate between shapes,
letters and words; and is able to count to 100 and do basic addition and subtraction.
However, Brandon did have a weakness in understanding quantitative concepts. Brandon
had diflicu1ty finishing a sentence that would show appropriate quantitative understanding,
such as big/little, heavy/light. This may have been due to Brandon's trouble in
remembering items that are presented verbally.
Brandon's score on the subtest of general knowledge and language full within the low
average range of functioning. Brandon was able to recognize all of his colors, understands

directional and positional concepts and can give personal data about himsel( such as name,
age and address. Brandon had slight difficulty in naming certain body parts.
In addition to Brandon's basic readiness skills, he was able to discriminate between different
letter sounds, repeat a sentence with up to 10 words and follow 4 step oral directions.
Brandon scored at the 10th percentile (SS=81) in reading words at a preprimer and primer
level. Brandon was able to read 7 out of 10 words at the preprimer level and 3 out of 10
words at the primer level.
.
Select tests were chosen from the Woodcock-Iolmson Test of Achievement-ill (WI-III) to .
supplement infonnation found on the CmS-R Consistent with scores on the CmS-R,
Brandon was able to identifY letters in random order, but had trouble in identifYing and
spelling words. Brandon would sound out words with the right sounds, but would not be
able to blend all of the sounds into a word. Brandon also earned a standard score of 93 on
the applied problems subtest, which is classified in the average range of functioning.
Scores on the Developmental Test of Visual-Motor Integration (VMI-4) were consistent
with cognitive ability and scores on the graphomotor and writing portions of the CmS-R
On the VMI Brandon is asked to copy various lines and integrated shapes. Brandon earned a
standard score of 92, which is classified in the average range of functioning and at the 3(fh
percentile.
Emotional and Behavioral Ac!justment
Brandon's mother completed the Child Behavior Checklist for ages 4-18 (CBCL).
Consistent with Brandon's diagnosis of ADHD, ratings on this scale indicate attention
problems in the clinical range. Brandon also received ratings in the clinical range for
delinquent behavior and borderline clinical range for aggressive behavior. Even though
these scores are significant, Brandon's teachers did not report any problems in these areas
at school.
Speech and Language
Request for a multi-disciplinary evaluation was received and testing began in May 2001.
Articulation testing revealed that Brandon substitutes f7th sounds. He was given the
Structured Photographic Expressive Language Test-II (SPELT II) to assess his
production of specific structures using controlled visual and auditory stimuli to elicit
forms and structures. Brandon's performance on this measure was below expected level
for his age. He received a raw score of 26/50 correct structures. The average for his age is
43 +/- 3. Looking at his recorded responses, Brandon demonstrated use of articles (the,
a), plural marker (s), pronouns (he, she, it, my, I, her, his, their), -ing endings,
prepositional phrases, and some questions formations. He inconsistently omitted (is),
substituted is/are, gotslhas, and was/were. He appears to have some grammatical rules but
has difficulty applying them consistently.

EvalWUion Report-Gilbert, Brandon
The Expressive One-Word Picture Vocabulary Test-R was administered to assess
Brandon's ability to visually perceive a picture and respond with the name of the object
pictured. He received a standard score of80. The average range for his age group is 85-
115. He demonstrated difficulty naming objects depicted by pictures. It was questioned
whether he was familiar with some object pictures. He demonstrates difficulty finding
words that he wants to use in sentences or to respond on demand to questions.
The Language Processing Test-R was administered to further explore Brandon's
difficulty with word-finding and processing of information. His scores on labeling,
stating functions, making associations, categorization, similarities, differences, and
attributes all fell within the strong average range. Several hesitations before responding
were noted perhaps indicating a need for longer processing time. It was noted on the
attributes sub-test, that Brandon only used the attributes of function, components, and
color consistently. It may beneficial to encourage him to use more attributes to assist with
his difficulty naming on demand.

avenlge range in beginning reading and quantitative skills, and in the vel)' low range in story
comprehension.
Brandon and his mother, Ms. Hall, report that Brandon enjoys school. Brandon indicates
that his favorite subjects are gym and recess, where as the hardest things for him to do are
coloring and cutting. Brandon states that he has many mends at school as well as on his
soccer team. However, according to Mrs. Cavanaugh (Brandon's kindergarten teacher) and
Brandon's mother, Brandon does not seem to interact socially with others. Ms. Hall stated
that Brandon enjoys soccer, but often does not engage conversation with others on the team, .
staying aloof Mrs. Cavanaugh reports that at school Brandon would play by himself on the .
playground and in the room. Ms. Hall reported that Brandon does not have many mends in
the neighborhood because they are so busy with school and soccer.
According to the nurse and records, Brandon passed vision and hearing screenings
conducted at school in the 2000-2001 school year. Brandon was diagnosed in
kindergarten, by his pediatrician, as having Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder
(ADHD). The nurse reported that Brandon is taking 20 'mg of Adderall at lunch and in
the morning before he comes to school. Ms. Hall confirmed this dosage and time.
ObservationslCliissroom based aSsessments
Brandon was observed during reading (morning) and math (afternoon) on September 6,
200 1. During reading time, Brandon was involved in identifYing letters, identifYing a
capital and lowercase "/>l', and answering questions about a story that was read to them.
Brandon followed several step directions, using peers in class for cues. For example, when
walking back to his seat with one hand6n his' head arid hopping with two feet, he followed
tlreexampltmfhiS'peers.Brandon was vel)' quiet through class only responding with the
group, seldom raising his hand to offer a question or comment. He did not talk to peers
sitting around him at the desks or in rug time. Brandon often would show nervous habits,
such as rubbing his fingers together, picking at his fingers or rubbing his face and eyes. In
addition, Brandon seemed disengaged from the lesson, either looking around the room or
engaging in these nervous habits. However, when asked to participate and answer a
question, Brandon was able to do so.
During math Brandon was much more active, often calling out questions or answers. The
class was working on a worksheet in which the children had to use unifix cubes to come up
with the correct response to an addition problem. Brandon could correctly figure out
problems and often anticipated the next problem by putting together the unifix cubes. At the
beginning of the class Brandon was working with an adult one-to-one. Brandon did great in
this situation, seeming as ifhe did not need any help at all. When Brandon had to work on
his own he frequently looked around or called out for verification from the teacher. It was
only when prompted did he attempt to finish his last few problems.
The speech and language clinician summarized observations from informal meetings during
the 2000-2001 school year. Brandon interacted well with the other student in turn taking
activities. He demonstrated some impulsiveness during activities such as guessing at letter
name/sounds. He responded well to positive reinforcement and appeared to enjoy coming to

language group. His perfonnance varied from session to session in that one day he appeared
confident with an activity using correct pronouns, for example and the next session
demonstrated great difficulty with a similar task. He appeared to have some difficulty
focusing on activities at times. He would re-direct his attention when asked.
Brandon was also observed during testing sessions with the examiner on September l' and
10th. Brandon was a delightful and cooperative child. He wanned up to the examiner
quickly and a good relationship was gained early and easily. Consistent with reports from .
the speech and language pathologist, Brandon had trouble expressing his thoughts verbally. .
He would often stumble over his words, taking a long time to answer the examiner's
questions. Frequently Brandon would define a concept or word because he was not able to
find the word he was looking for. Brandon was very animated in his responses. Ifhe knew
he got an answer wrong he would scrunch up his face and whine, but ifhe got an answer
correct he would sing, dance in his seat, and chant "I got it". Occasionally Brandon would
be impulsive in starting tasks and not waiting for the full instructions, and when answering
questions. However, Brandon did show good self-monitoring skills in that he would
frequently self-correct himself and give the right answer or stop himself and ask a clarifYing
question. Brandon would also repeat many things that the examiner said in attempt to
remember the question or directions.
Tem:her Report
Brandon's current teacher, Mrs. Bruner reported that she often has to repeat directions for
Brandon and give him many prompts to answer questions or finish his work. In addition,
she stated that Brandon needs many visual prompts to supplement verbal directions.
-Consistentwith examiner- observations, Mrs. Bruner indicated that Brandon learns from his
peers, and often uses his peers as cues to what he should be doing. Finally Mrs. Bruner
stated that her concerns for Brandon are that he does not do well with listening, has trouble
cutting and handling scissors, and makes letter and number reversals.
Evaluations and Information provided by the Parents or Persons with Whom the
Student Lives:
Ms. Hall stated that her biggest concern for Brandon is his overall academic progress. She
stated that he has been seeing a tutor, but that in his writing he is still reversing letters and
numbers. Ms. Hall indicated that Brandon loves school and his new teacher but the hardest
thing for him is writing because he gets so frustrated if he cannot get a letter right. Ms. Hall
expressed further concern over Brandon's interest in violence. She indicated that she is
worried that Brandon may have a high level of anger built up because of the divorce and is
keeping it inside. Ms. Hall stated that he did see a therapist for issues related to the divorce,
but that he hasn't seen her for a while and only went two or three times.

If an Assessment is not conducted Under Standard Conditions, Describe the Extent
to Which It Varied From Standard Conditions:
No assessment was conducted under nonstandard conditions.
Summary of FindingslInterpretation of Assessment Results:
Brandon Gilbert is a 7 yr, 0 mos old student in Mrs. Bruner's class at East Pennsboro
Elementary school. Ms. Hall, Brandon's mother, referred Brandon because she had -
concerns surrounding Brandon's academic progress over the past couple of years. .
Record review indicates that Brandon received informal speech and language services
once a cycle for the 2000-2001 school year. In addition, Brandon was involved in the
fine motor, ABC and writing club. Brandon repeated kindergarten. Brandon was
diagnosed in kindergarten as having ADHD and is currently taking 20 mg of Adderall at
lunch and in the morning.
Test results indicate that Brandon's overall cognitive abilities are classified in the below
average range of functioning. Brandon has a strength in his nonverbal reasoning skills.
Brandon has trouble with word retrieval when speaking and giving the definition to
words. In academic areas, Brandon is functioning in the average range, except for his
skills in general knowledge and language, which is consistent with speech and language
reports, teacher reports and examiner observations. Brandon did make several letter and
number reversals, but this is somewhat normal for children his age. In addition Brandon
showed good self-monitoring skills in that he would self-correct himself when he gave an
impulsive answer and repeat directions and questions to help him remember what was
asked of him.
Socially Brandon is quite reclusive. He does not engage or initiate activities with peers
in class, at home or extracurricular activities. Scores on the CBCL (parent Rating Form)
indicated ratings in the clinical range for attention problems, delinquent behavior and
borderline clinical range for aggressive behavior. However, only Brandon's attention has
been noted by teachers to be a problem in school, they have not noted any aggressive or
delinquent behaviors at this time.
Conclusions:
X Student is a child with a disability. Disability category: Other Health Impaired
- (If appropriate) Secondary Disability category: Speech Impairment
X Student is in need of specially designed instmction
Student is not a child with a disability, or is a child with a disability but does
not need specially designed instmction.

Recommendations:
Even though Brandon is currently on medication for ADHD, this condition is interfering
with his performance in the classroom. Due to this disorder, Brandon has an overly
heightened alertness to environmental stimuli, which makes learning in the general
education setting difficult for him. It is recommended that Brandon receive special
education services under the category of other health impaired to address this need.
Brandon is currently seeing Mrs. Evanish for reading support. The team should refer to .
her for recommendations and progress in this area. .
Brandon's Individualized Education Plan should include, but is not limited to the
following:
,/ Preferential seating
,/ Concise and simple directions
,/ Break down assignments into a check list so that Brandon can visualize
what he has to do for the day and what has already been completed
,/ Extra time to complete work
,/ Modified assignments
,/ Graph paper to help organize writing
,/ Use of number and letter line to help with reversals
,/ Visual cues
In addition, a change in medication may be warranted since Brandon is currently on
medication, but is still off task at certain times of the day. Staff will be able to complete
medication monitors to assist his pediatrician with adjustments.
In terms of non-educational recommendations, it is suggested that Brandon continue to
see his therapist to address Ms. Hall's concerns of aggressive and delinquent behavior.
