Dan Whisenhunt speaks about the change in climate that has been coming out of the city schools of Decatur. Prior to a recent change in Superintendent, many families who had children with dyslexia attending schools in the city were vocalizing tremendous frustration with the school administration. Children with this issue were not receiving the needed attention to foster their success.

For years parents of dyslexic City Schools of Decatur students have been working behind the scenes to make changes in the classroom to help their children become better readers. And for years, they say, CSD officials resisted change.
