[quote=Anonymous]Here are some conditions for staying in a mainstream school with that profile, in my experience: - child can handle extra tutoring on top of school, is progressing well, and isn’t too tired out from it - not too sensitive to being « different » from peers - child comfortable advocating for accommodations Our dyslexia/ADHD DC was getting really worn out from the extra tutoring, and was getting really frustrated with their school performance (average, giftedness masking LD) and peers/teachers not understanding their learning differences. DC now at Siena and thriving in a community where about 50% of students are 2E. DC will likely return to mainstream school for HS with the self-advocacy skills needed to succeed.[/quote]
