Tomkat,

My daughter spent the last two years of high school at a boarding school that is dedicated to educating LD students (Eagle Hill School, Hardwick, MA). It changed her life. We did not try to get our local public school system to provide funding because we thought it would be a big battle that we did not want to fight, although other students at Eagle Hill are getting funding. What we are able to do is to get a tax deduction- the school provides us with a letter that we include with our tax forms. She is graduating this spring and is planning to attend an art school for a BFA in photography.
