"I can see why parents might want to withhold this information, but if you are looking at a 504 plan, I think you need to share it so that the school can make appropriate accommodations. One thing you can do is have your DD start and then after she's been there for a few days or a week (and the teacher gets to know her), THEN share the information. That way she/he is not unfairly biased before getting to know her."

Good idea. We are meeting with the psych. next week to work on accommodation ideas that we can present to the school as we work through the 504 process. Sorry if I led all to believe the 504 was in place. It's just getting started.
