If it is dysgraphia, handwriting is possibly quite painful. Thinking back, did she ever complain about that? When given an assignment to write something, does she tend to put the fewest possible words down? yet if you offered to write or type it for her there would be a LOT more detail? This was one of the things that made me push to have thank you and Wiz evaluated for that. Esp as Jess has none of those problems.
The school CAN provide her with a type of laptop that is very ver durably, not much bigger than a keyboard on a laptop if that is an issue, She does NOT need an IEP to get this. thank you started to learn to use one last year and will likely have one full time for as long as he is in public school. Don't let them try to tell you she could have it IF she had an IEP. That is malarkey.
Be careful before sharing these results with the school.
Dysgraphia can be helped. A good step at this point would be to ask an for an assistive technology evaluation - to see what they have that might help her. Go ahead and google "alphasmart". It will let you find the current versions and how they work
