[quote=Anonymous]My DC is currently in kindergarten and starting to show signs of becoming further behind, according to the school and their teacher. We work with our DC at home (there's no homework at their school) on sight words, reading beginner books, writing, and K level math/numbers. At home, DC seems to be doing well and knows their stuff, however, we constantly receive feedback from DC's teacher saying they are not "at grade level" with a lot of skills and they are behind their peers in all areas. We have asked for an evaluation, next steps, what can we do at home, but we are still waiting to hear back. Up until now, we always get a phone call back and the school or teacher is unable to respond to us in writing. Whenever we call directly to speak to someone we get the "we'll take a message and someone will return your call" line. We are not able to just move to another area of Arlington or even outside of Arlington to change schools, which, a friend did suggest.  We are more than willing and able to advocate and push for help for our child, however, it seems to be falling on deaf ears. Yet we still receive the same feedback about our child who is behind. Does anyone have a recommendation for a tutor or a program we can use on the side at home that would benefit someone in K? Has anyone else experienced this and maybe can share some tips? [/quote]
