Moving to Public school from Private School to get more support for dyslexia
Hello there,
We are considering transferring from our private Oakland elementary school to go to our local elementary school (Montclair Elementary) to get more support for our 8-year old son with dyslexia. Is there anyone out there that has done this? What worked and what didn't? It's a tough position to be in and we are just beginning to familiarize ourselves with our options. Thank you!

Public school districts are required to provide resource support to students in private schools. Have you pursued this? You might want to consider how much resource time your child would receive in the public school compared with what the district would provide to your private school. Have you already had your child tested and an IEP (Individualized Educational Program) set up through the Oakland District?
