[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you are happy with your current school and your child is thriving why would you consider moving her? I'd stay put and just get some outside reading help.[/quote] The MoCo elementary school is working hard to understand what she needs and is intellectually stimulated, but it comes at a cost for her physically and emotionally - as we have to medicate to manage frequent headaches and stomach aches and anxiety of using her accommodations. She has asked to try a school where the accommodations are just part of everyone's day and I wonder if the headaches would be less frequent if she was in a place that knows how the dyslexic brain works best? But it is hard to "just try it out." On the flip side i have also seen the impact of her boredom at school. [/quote]
