[quote=Anonymous]If you are asking about accommodations for in school, yes, most area mainstream schools offer standard accommodations if you have documentation to support them. I don’t know for sure about the calculator thing, that would be a question to ask. Extra time is standard. My dyslexic kid has accommodations including extra time, spelling doesn’t count, word banks for tests (hasn’t needed that one yet, but it’s there), computer use, and speech to text/text to speech. Most schools will not alter work loads or deadlines, but many teachers will offer extensions to students who ask in advance. If you are talking about accommodations for standardized entry tests, you need to go to the test’s website and look up how to request and submit documentation. I would think your current school could help with that. [/quote]
