[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How about using the proper language?  Your child has dyslexia....rather than a ‘de-coding’ issue?  How about using the more rigorous neuro-psych exam rather than the cheapest?  How about having a trained professional rather than a ‘resource teacher’ or a paraprofessional - which is an oxymoron.  Some struggle with the English language.  Utterly morally bankrupt.  Dr. McKnight came from the system... do you honestly think she will change anything?[/quote]
"Dyslexia" is pretty meaningless by itself as there are so many ways a person can be dyslexic. [/quote]

Ah, sorry MCPS employee defending the indefensible.  When you tell a parent dyslexia it means expensive remediation: OG tutoring.  What other profession besides law tries to obfuscate a diagnosis with terms they make up?  It is a wait to fail model with no remediation.  Only because of decoding dyslexia is MCPS putting window dressing in a house fire with a week of OG training and a lot of press releases.  [/quote]
My kid was diagnosed with dyslexia (1st percentile in one category) and yet OG would be no help. Dyslexia [i]does [/i]present in different ways, even if you don't want to see it.[/quote]
