[quote=Anonymous]We missed the boat on applying to private schools for next year, so our newly diagnosed kid will be at her DCPS public for 4th grade. Trying to figure out if we should move her to private for 5th? Or make the move for 6th (a bigger entry year)? And should we look at dyslexia-focused schools or mainstream privates? She's great at math, strong reading comprehension when given extra time, excellent auditory comprehension (i.e. loves above grade level audio books, but struggles with at grade level regular books). She can read....but she's a very slow reader and her spelling is totally phonetic. We're starting OG tutoring, and beginning to realize that public school might not be the best place for her (too bad because we moved to our neighborhood for the bilingual elementary school and the path to Deal and JR).
