[quote=Anonymous]Our DD is dyslexic and was reading/testing at or above grade level. We just knew there was something wrong. As others have mentioned, telltale signs are inserting appropriate but not correct words (puppy vs dog), repeating or missing lines, headaches, complaining about reading, poor writing, etc. We inquired about testing through APS and were deterred because she was on grade level. Although we probably could have pushed it, we ultimately felt the time it would have taken the school to accomplish the testing would have been at least 1 school year, which would have put DD further behind. In the end, we opted for private testing. Now, we're working through the 504 process, although that's been like pulling teeth too.[/quote]
