[quote=Anonymous]My middle school child was denied a 504 because, in the words of the evaluator, he wasn't failing. The school's psychologist actually said "it is not the responsibility of the public schools to see that your child meets his potential. We don't have the resources for that. We want to see that he graduates. That's all." My child has severe ADHD and problems with writing, but is advanced in math. He gets mostly Bs in school, sometimes an A or C. I think there are definitely some supports he could use, like keyboarding, help with executive functions, etc. Is it normal for the school to deny this and refuse to do anything? Fyi, we're not in the DC area.[/quote]
