[QUOTE="svengandhi, post: 111892, member: 3493"] Thank you, Esther. I thought I had a lot of kids, but you have me beat by THREE! I do shep nachas from them (mostly)although sometimes they make me meshuga! I have a friend I just thought of who is a teacher and whose H is Israeli. I don't know why I didn't think of her earlier since the son I wrote about is best friends with her son and was at her home when I posted! I will ask her if she knows anything. In addition, I subscribe to an online dyslexia newsletter and I will search their site to see if they have an Israeli counterpart. The yeshivot in my area are all Orthodox or Conservative and do not accept children with Learning Disability (LD)'s - they generally go to public school. We are in a Reform temple at this time (I felt it would be easier as there is less Hebrew required, but even this lesser amount is an obstacle for him) and the Reform movement does not have day schools. Now that you mention it, though, I do recall reading in the Jewish Press about a day school in Boro Park that specializes in children who can't "lein" the usual way. I will see if I can find that information. Esther, by the way, is my middle name in Hebrew. [/QUOTE]
