[quote=Anonymous]Without getting your child a disability code that will get him an individual education plan, you can get your doctor to give him a diagnosis that can get him a 504 plan that can give him accommodations to avoid this kind of thing. My middle schooler has a 504 plan in which teachers remind him to turn in his homework and take other steps to help him stay on track. You can start out by discussing the challenges you are having with your doctor. Many, many middle schoolers have 504 plans for issues such as dyslexia and other challenges. It's not a big deal and it often doesn't entail being pulled out to a resource room or anything like that. I wouldn't worry about what has already happened because you can't do anything about that. Talk to your doctor and the school counselor about steps that can help your child succeed.[/quote]
