We plan to move in the the spring to find a school district that could better serve ds' needs. His current school is good/great for a regular learner but cannot handle a kid who is at grade level generally but needs ot and language, plus extra help on standardized tests.
By way of background, he was dx with a language processing disorder in December by a private slp. The school accepted the private report to qualify for testing, as he tested average on their administration of the celf.
We had a big meeting at the end of May. His reading teacher brought up his handwriting. His other teacher mentioned he might have a visual perceptual disorder (three years with these same two teachers). He has poor fine motor skills, his pencil grip is poor and he pushes too hard. He didn't qualify for school ot but now may. His private ot graduated him. He also has anxiety.
I would like a district where we wouldn't have to have after school therapies, where there won't be handwringing but no action. Thoughts? Local special ed boards?
