Recently, I had a brief but exciting discussion with a parent on Instagram who asked for some help for her 14 year old son. He was recently diagnosed with dyslexia. Now here’s the thing, he’s in private school. Now, private schools are under no obligation to do anything, but this student’s school is willing to work with the student. In this episode, I’m going to go over my advice on what to do in this unique situation.
This will be great for any homeschoolers out there who have a child with a hidden disability, or any high school spec ed teachers, counselor, or college disability professionals who come across newly diagnosed students. It happens all the time. So, take some notes and even refer this episode to others who may find it helpful. Oh, know that I’ll be talking directly to this parent and include my own parental views on this because my son has dyslexia too. So, keep that in mind as you listen.
What I love about this scenario is that it mimics much of what a student may need to do in college, but also what I would want for every 14 year old high schooler with an IEP or 504 plan. From learning about themselves and their own disability, how to adjust to academics, communication, and what accommodations are needed, this is a great episode to demonstrate what a student has to do in college, independently.
