I live in Michigan. I am a parent of a 15-year-old freshman with a significant history of dyslexia/written language/executive skill disabilities and math learning disability. He attended an independent school in New England prior to our move to Michigan. Based on standardized testing, our public school district would like to eliminate our son from his IEP for written language. Needless to say, we think this is not in his best interest.

If not, can you recommend any outside evaluators with specific expertise in advocating for students with dyslexia, language, executive functioning and math learning disabilities?
