[quote=Anonymous]Hey, this is supposed to be the kind, supportive forum. Let's give the OP a break. MERLD can be a learning difference but it often co-exists with another issue which might be why the grumpy PP is saying a different diagnosis is in order. Step 1 - look at the recommendations by the tester for the school. These should be thorough and specific enough for you to transfer them to a school's practice. If the recs say that your son needs pragmatic language intervention 3x per week then you need a school that does intervention, not just accommodation. Lab, Siena, Oakwood, and on the opposite ends, McLean and Kingsbury are schools who will help your child improve through interventions. There are other schools that can just support him and you could do the language therapy outside of school but be sure to layer in social skills stuff and emotional therapy to get him through this bump. Hang in there[/quote]
