[quote=Anonymous]One problem with the HPST is accommodations are extremely limited as to what can be offer. Students with dyscalculia, dyslexia, and ADD are not offered much beyond small group testing and extended time. For the first one (physical inability to align numbers and symbols), cueing and modeling is needed before a student performs a test. Graphic organizers---standard prescription for dyscalculia---are not allowed in most of the Catholic schools in this area. So it was not surprising when these children come back with lowered scores. Not just a function of the test being easy or hard. Students with special needs to do not always get full assistance required for this test. [/quote]
