Unfortunately, they won't even give us a 504. Their reasoning is that she doesn't need it since they already are open to making accommodations in the classroom without one (it's a magnet school that is more liberal than a traditional school).
That doesn't sound like they're quoting district policy, just making something up to suit themselves. You should check out your county, district,etc.'s actual written policy on whether they can deny creating a formal 504 or other plan for a child with dyslexia! I really doubt they'd have a leg to stand on.
best of luck.
