[quote=Anonymous]Very tough situation. Our child also struggles tremendously with number sense/basic math concepts and we did finally get a diagnosis of dyscalculia. Found a psychologist who was familiar with it and could do some more targeted math assessments for the neuropsych. We too have done years of tutoring and extra help but high school has been really tough. The diagnosis came after 9th grade and our private school has been pretty understanding but only provides basic accommodations. Unfortunately, public and private schools alike have very little in the way of interventions for dyscalculia, in part because it just hasn’t been studied enough (especially compared to dyslexia). I wish I had specific school suggestions. I think it’s possible to navigate at places like Field and Burke (though you’ll likely still need extra outside tutoring). Good luck, OP! I’m rooting for you and your child.[/quote]
