[quote=Anonymous]I’m not sure if there’s anything happening. I want to get that out of the way immediately.

That being said, this is where we are:

- DD is in a K-8 private school she loves and that we are really happy with. She will be 7 in October.

- She took the WPPSI as part of admissions in Fall 2021 and scored 135 overall (99th percentile) with no dips in abilities.

- Her math is very strong. As in, she enjoys doing multiplication and can do division in her head. Her spatial reasoning was off the charts in her WPPSI.

- She is extremely creative and seems have a really good memory. She memorized the entire soundtrack to a musical she loves and can sing all the songs, with a surprising number of tonal nuances.

- She is in speech therapy for articulation issues, and the SLP tells us she will likely need that for at least a couple more years.

- She is also in reading intervention. Her reading specialist—who is Orton-Gillingam certified—told us today that she has not yet mastered Kindergarten sight words and she isn’t decoding CVC words as fluently as she should be.

She reads to us every day. We read to her constantly.

She is scheduled for a neuropsych eval this fall.

Again, I’m not sure if there’s anything happening. I’m just trying to process everything. I’m not even sure if I have a question. [/quote]
