I think I will definitely quote your school saying that the verbal is the best indicator!!!! :-) It is crazy how they just say whatever they feel like. I'm glad you finally got your daughter's abilities recognized. Sounds like you had quite a struggle too.

I took in a plethora of articles today and it was still just "he doesn't meet the scores" and all the other insulting things I posted earlier. I was definitely not "heard".

I will have to keep thinking it over but I probably will have to pursue it a bit further. If only because I want some answers as to what our system's policy is for 2e kids. Thanks so much for the best wishes!
