[quote=Anonymous]Op here. Thank you! This has been helpful ands I have to decide if I have to find a lawyer and if it’s going to be worth the trouble. I might have let this go, but the school strong arming their way into removing the accommodation really rubs me off the wrong way. My simple interpretation is that - there is documented expert evaluation across 5 years that his processing speed is at 5% and the rest of his ability is at 85 or 90. He works incredibly hard to make sure he does well in school. Extra time as an accommodation is recommended by experts. But school seems think that because it’s not used often enough. It is not needed. They claim it is based on data across the years. I dispute that. They claim he uses extra time ‘sometimes’ to check his work. He disagrees and says he is finishing up. They say ‘recollections may vary’ but this is the result. [/quote]
