[quote=Anonymous]We tried. Foreign languages are SUPER hard for dyslexic kids but FCPS will absolutely not allow you to pull a kid from foreign languages or PE for that matter, if you wanted extra instructional time. I get it. We tried. FCPS will tell you it is against the law, and all sorts of other BS. We stopped fighting it and I just looked at that time as a chance for his little brain to rest because he wasn't learning anything and the teacher did not expect anything of the class except to stay seated. Elementary foreign language, at least at our FCPS elementary school, is crap anyway. My kids have had both Chinese and Spanish and have not been taught more than to say hello, goodbye, and count to ten. (I now have a 7th and 4th grader.) You have enough on your plate, let this one slide. Don't worry about the grading or whether he is learning anything. Just let it be.[/quote]
