kip reading the ADA and spend time on the IDEA (Individuals with Disabilities Education Act).

Greetings,

Dyslexia, while a legitimate diagnosable condition, is not one of the 13
regulated categories of disabilities under the IDEA. However, it is
referenced as a "such as..." condition under the category of Specific
Learning Disability. A suggestion would be to skip reading the ADA and
spend time on the IDEA (Individuals with Disabilities Education Act).

Good luck in the evaluation process with your daughter.

Joe
