[quote=Anonymous]Can't say enough good things about Siena School for dyslexia and/or dysgraphia. Will only take kids whose primary diagnosis is a language based learning disability, but secondary diagnoses like ADHD are OK, and IME, the school provides good support for ADHD/organization issues. OP, I would really encourage you to visit the schools that have been recommended, and look at and ask questions about their reading, writing and spelling instruction, as well as how the school delivers aspects of the math curriculum that have to do with written language. If your DC's primary diagnosis is dyslexia, I would make sure to place your DC at a private school that offers an explicit, repetitive reading instruction like Wilson, OG, Phonograhpix, etc. FWIW, we found Siena reading instruction highly effective.
