Re: ld and dyspraxia

Submitted by an LD OnLine user on

: I have a 14 year old daughter who is currently labeled ld. She is
: attending NYC public school and is in special education. I just
: recently found out that she has dyspraxia, and am looking into
: private NYC High School that has an on-site OT. Need information
: about any such school or any information reregarding Dyspraxia.My daughter is eight years old and I believe that she has Dyspraxia. It is also commonly called Developmental Coordination Disorder. There is a lot of info about this on the web. I don’t know anything about schools because I live in Canada. However I have been spending a lot of time searching for info on the interent while I wait for a diagnosis. I have read so much that I am positive this is what my daughter has. I would go to a search engine and type in Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD) and you will find many sites. Hope this helps.
