Learning Disabilities
If you suspect that your child may have LD, consult with their teacher and other school staff to decide next steps. A prereferral support team may be one option. Remember that the public school is obligated to assess your child to see if he / she has a disability and needs special education services to benefit from their general education program. This is true whether he / she attends a public or private school. The public school is not legally required to provide a diagnosis, give you more information for their tutor, or qualify them for extra time on college entrance exams. Under law, LD must be identified by a group of professionals from different fields, a multidisciplinary team, who has assessed your child. While public schools must consider reports you obtained privately, they have the right to assess your child before making any decisions. Following assessment, the public school team will meet with you to discuss the results and decide if your child is eligible for special education services at the public school. Whether or not they are eligible, evaluation results can be used to plan their educational program, help them understand his / her learning disabilities, and find ways to be successful.
