My ds has a diagnosis of dysgraphia, but the school wants to remove it from his IEP. The last time he was tested, his written expression subtest score (acheivement test) put him in the 40th percentile. His IQ was measured in the 99th percentile. I know schools sometimes don't want to use a discrepancy to diagonse LDs, but I think that's so they don't miss kids who only have a 19 pooint discrepancy. Does a 59 point discrepancy automatically qualify him? His teachers say his handwriting is legible so he shouldn't qualify. He's at a new school this year, and they really haven't pushed him to write anything extensive.
