Good news!!
My 8 yo Dau took the terra nova a few months ago in her 2nd grade class. We didn’t expect much from her (based on the negative reports we had received and since we were awaiting the results of her neuropsych report, as well as the fact that she had been very ill and had missed the previous week of school) and we were feeling very low about her abilities. We just got the results today and she scored at or above the 50th percentile on everything (except science- 47th %)!!!!! She even scored in the 87th % on her math!!! This is from the kid that we were told is behind in math, and reading at a 1st grade level, with problems in comprehension!!!
I know not to get too wrapped up in these results, but we are just excited since the school LOVES to use these results! (I know these can be contoversial tests). And for those of you that remember me, we have been fighting against retention for the past 2 years, school saying she is behind and needs another year of the same (neuropsych rules that out!)! We just feel that we have yet another example of the fact that WE DO know our daughter best!!!
Thanks for all of the support that everyone has given to us. We couldn’t have made it this far with your support!!!
