Our school actually moved my oldest son's IEP from his LD category to OHI. They said he longer qualified for his dyslexia because of how good he was doing, but his type 1 diabetes qualified him under other health impairment. They did keep his accommodations for dyslexia, but it was no longer the qualifying issue. The school here is really trying to keep supports for the kids as long as possible and they found a way to do so with him. If he didn't have a serious medical condition, he would have lost the IEP sometime late elementary to early middle school.
Our school actually had its ranking knocked down last year because they had 6 kids more than allowed to have accommodations during testing. It's ridiculous system that the are penalized for helping kids with special needs.
