[quote=Anonymous]Siena and Lab are the two schools in the area that specialize in dyslexia. Tour both and ask lots of questions. How much energy does your child have at the end of the day? Even with an IEP, dcps won't provide enough intervention and you'll need tutoring -- does she have enough energy at the end of the day to engage in tutoring? Has dcps been willing to provide all the assistive technology she needs to access grade level reading and writing, while her decoding and spelling catch up? We found that it was much easier to supplement strengths outside of school than to supplement weaknesses.[/quote]
