[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is rampant at private schools - the wealthier the population, the higher the % of accommodations. I have friends whose kids got accommodations in 10th grade - got diagnosis, handed to school, school had to accommodated, the school filed w College Board. [/quote] I know there’s abuse but just another perspective. DD was eligible for accommodations since age 7 but she was smart enough to do well in elementary and we didn’t pursue accommodations (but had private reading tutor to help keep her on track). Things fell apart in middle school. Then she started getting anxious and depressed because she felt dumb. She was tested again and the Stixrud doc nearly yelled at us for not taking care of her better and sooner. So accommodations kicked in in 10th grade. We weren’t gaming anything. [/quote]
