[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hi OP, we put our DC in a school specializing in dyslexia for the reasons you cited in #5 - she was hyper aware of how she was different from her peers and it was hurting her self-esteem and drive to learn. She’s also gifted. Now she has a much better sense of her strengths and weaknesses, how to advocate for herself, use accommodations and tools, and has lots of friends now who also have dyslexia. She will return next year to a mainstream HS. The book Overcoming Dyslexia is a good reference as you start your journey. Also check out the Dyslexic Advantage.[/quote] I have a child who needs the type of school for question #5. What school is that if you don’t mind sharing.[/quote] There are three in the immediate area: Lab, Siena, and Chelsea.[/quote]
