[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can't see how the school is at fault. Just another sad instance of choosing image over meeting a kids needs. Paying for a school doesn't mean it's good for a child. No idea of how a lawsuit will bring peace.[/quote]

The school will think twice before doing this again. Dyslexia is not that hard to accommodate. We know severaal kids with this condition.[/quote]

Well at that age (8th grade) the feeling of losing your friends / fitting in can be devastating.  I think we all forget that mentality as we age. 
(Note: I am not suggesting the school is at fault or liable (don't know)).[/quote]

This happened recently in DMV and no I am not giving name of school but said school will hopefully think more kinder. Some of these schools put kids out for a variety of reasons and don’t realize or don’t care about consequences including for students who were classmates. This St Ann’s case is really upsetting because the kid didn’t get in trouble. There are so many ways to accommodate dyslexia now including even taping notes or teacher provided notes and additional testing methods. As mentioned this school doesn’t have letter grades and is supposed to be christian. It is all very sad and hopefully more schools will take notice. I give his parents credit for shining light because it is so easy to just sit quietly in grief.[/quote]
