[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So many good responses here from parents who had kids with similar struggles. Hope it helps OP.  [/quote] This is OP and yes, this has all been super helpful and very validating that we need to dig into this and not accept at face value the easy narrative we've received from the school. I'd appreciate any other private resources for evaluation people have used (we will in parallel see what the school can offer). [/quote]

I'm the college kid mom from Page 1.

As our tester said, "In K, 1, and 2, they are learning to read. Beginning in 3rd grade, they are reading to learn." I'm glad you are digging deeper. Good luck.

Like another poster earlier, it makes me so mad that our school was so lax about my concerns. The teacher asked me "Why do you think he has dyslexia?" BECAUSE HE CANNOT SPELL! 12 years later and I'm still as angry as heck, but that anger got me to get him tested since it was clear that MCPS wasn't going to address anything.
