Re: 2009 Summer Intervention Programs
See if there are any private schools that specifically cater to LD kids and find out if they offer summer programs. I live in a city with a wonderful LD school and they have a fantastic summer program complete with conferences with the teacher teams t give you feedback on your child's learning style. They also provide a parent meeting to educate parents on how to get a formal diagnosis, if one is not determined already and what multi sensory teaching techniques they use. Also, they let you know what has worked with teaching your child so that it can be duplicated.

I agree. No one else will stick up for your child. They just take the easy way out.
