Yes my DS is very verbal and has much to say! He just can't physically write it. School is SUCH a pain about dysgraphia. I am not sure if they really are as stupid as they act or if they simply act like complete morons to get out of things. Either way, be prepared... You will have to tell them every little step to make, they'll resist giving any kind of scribing (fight for this it is really, really important) and then you'll have to make sure they are implementing. CHances are they'll completely resist identifying it. My son's school did and he is pretty severe. But, in the end, ypur battles are worth it and make the school teach him typing and it'll all be fine eventually!

Yeah OT can help (how much it helps varies) but it will not cure dysgraphia. I had a mindset for a awhile that my kid will do tons of OT and he'll be "normal" and catch up. Forget it. Yes do the OT and get him as functional as he can be but make sure you get him typing and work-arounds. I found the sooner I accepted this the better things I got for my DS. Hope all this helps!
