My child is dyslexic. She can read well but spelling and math i s a problem. She scores very high on state tests but needs accomadations in the classroom to even keep up. The school wants to get rid of her IEP and they don;t want to do a 504. The teachers who help her only look at her test scores and think we the parents are wrong How do I get past the high terst scores and have them focus on a 504
