[quote=Anonymous]I really would not worry about the grades before 6th grade. Sometimes it’s fitting a square peg into a round hole but people wanted grades so here we are. They are intended to give a parent a general idea of issues — but if you are a parent like OP that already has a good idea of what the issues are, they aren’t going to add anything. OP, from your tone, you sound offended about the grade. You need to let that go. You’ve got 10 more years of dealing with schooling for your dyslexic kid — it’s a long road and you need to leave any ego at the door now so you can focus on what’s important. What’s important is whether your kid is making progress, not a letter on a piece of paper that no one will ever see. In fact, bad grades are affirmatively helpful in the IeP proffers. MCPS regularly uses good grades as justification for denying services. The teacher may be trying to help you by not inflating the grade here.[/quote]
