[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don't get your hopes up for FCPS and dyslexia. They may have a workshop, they may even use the word dyslexia (before, they denied it existed), but the ignorance that I have seen as an advocate is appalling. My advice to most parents is not to fight for services. Most of the services they offer are not worth it. I have worked with children who received services through the county for years, only to fall further behind. It will take change at every level -- at the top administrative level, to the principal level, to mandatory, comprehensive education for the teachers. As a friend to several FCPS teachers, I know this is not happening at the teacher level. As a witness to what many principals are doing, there is much resistance. [/quote] So what do you advise parents to do?[/quote]
