My 7 year old son is in 2nd grade and just diagnosed with reading disorder and a disorder of written expression outside of his school. How do I approach his school with this information? He attends a private Catholic school but they have been helping him this year and seem willing to help. I am unsure if I contact his teacher or the principal. Should I request and IEP initially or talk to them first about the diagnoses? Thanks for any help
