Don't give up. I have dyslixia too, and my old school shuned me too and treated me like an idiot (the teachers called me lazy and stupid to my face). Then, I started going to a different school that had a reasorce room class that I was placed in. All the teachers treated me really nicly there and the resorce room teachers there were trained to help students like me. The school even gave me a alpha smart (it's like a small type writer) to type in all my classes because my handwritting and spelling is so bad (not all schools with resorce room have this, but most do).

Mind you, this wasnt a "specal school" it was a norrmal one. Most schools have a resorce room program to help kids. I sugest you and you're parents going online and look for a new school, trust me, it won't be hard to find one with a resorce room program.

Let me just say, dyslexia is new. Not many teachers no what to do, plus everyone is different. One of my friends who alos has dyslxia learns better with work books, but I learn better with pictures and games. The resorce room teachers will help you.

If needed, get a tutor. Make sure they are trained to help kids with dyslexia.

Doing all of this isn't as hard as it sounds, its all very easy. Remeber, you're not alone, and never give up. If you have any more questions, ask me.
