The school where you nephew goes should have a psychiatrist that is either there full time or part time. Ask your sister to talk to the teacher. There are some papers she would need to sign to give her consent for the evaluation. Then the school will set up a PET (pupil evaluation team). This would include your sister, the teacher, principal, psychologist and any one else who tests your nephew. None of this costs the parent money. If your sisters wants she could have you or your mother go to the PET with her. Your nephew really needs to be on a behavior plan at school. This will help make his day more enjoyable and it will give the teacher some help. A lot of times the school will assign a one on one aid to help work with a child who is having these types of problems.
I don't know the laws for other states but in Maine if a parent requests a evaluation on their child the school has to comply.
