You must be very proud of her maturity, poise, and self-awareness. That is what will take her the furthest in life, and as a human being, without a doubt.


aeh, thanks for the detailed information. The two TOWL scores we have are for Contextual Conventions and Story Composition. If there is more to that test it may not have been administered, because the WJ Ach non-fluency writing scores were ok - in that 95-120 band.

We haven't met with the school yet. I think we were pursuing 504 rather than IEP because IEPs provide tutoring services for one period a day and she doesn't want to give up an elective. Since she has an existing medical 504 it will also be relatively fast to set up, and we want it in place before the summer math placement exam. We may try for IEP also if it seems worth it, but it would probably be November before it was set up. Is this a reasonable plan?

And yes, we are extremely proud of her.
