« I keep taking numbers from other problems and substituting them for the correct values. Is this dyslexia? | Home | 23 years old slipped through all the cracks has dyslexia any ideas? »
Relocating to the Houston area, which schools or districts are best for kids with special needs, dyslexia?
She is in 4th grade, has dyslexia.
Thank you for your answers and I am aware of that. I guess I am looking for schools that may have a reputation for serving these needs best, or if there are some places that have a reputation of performing poorly in this area. Thanks!
She’ll be in mainstream school, with some extra help.
That is a mild disability.
Mostly schools in prosperous suburbs are better resourced than those in poorer areas.

Call the school districts and ask them what kind of programs they have!

All public schools have to provide accommodations for students with learning disabilities.
This isn’t a ‘club’ or an extra curricular activity which they get to choose to offer/ choose to offer at certain campuses.
They must offer appropriate accommodations to every student who is enrolled in their school district and every school in their district. This is mandatory federal law. It applies every school, every school district throughout the entire USA.

There is also a dyslexic group in Houston, The Houston Branch of The International Dyslexia Association (HBIDA), they have a helpline which should be able to give you help with picking a school.
