[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DCPS is supposed to be rolling out a whole new dyslexia approach. Contact Decode Dysleixia DC. - an advocacy group -
Tied with national efforts. And then also contact Corrine Colgan (instructional chief) at DCPS who claimed on a decode dyslexia zoom that she’d follow up with anyone who contacted her about it. Don’t feel like you’re overdoing it or “wait and see” that school will do the right things — they won’t unless you are the squeaky wheel. If you are, it’s a pain but it’s the only way to get anyone to deal with it. Otherwise DCPS waits til you get frustrated and leave the system (private or move). But if you push them, there are people who are up to date on what to do and how to screen and get services. But you won’t get them until you push and push hard ongoing. Yes it’s completely unfair for those with privilege- but work with decode dyslexia to help change that - they know how to do the screenings and services at all schools and won’t until they get pushed to do it and do it faster.
