[QUOTE="momtoagreatkid, post: 165640, member: 2345"] I was thinking about your situation last night, when a friend of my son's, who is attending summer school (he's in eighth grade, as your son is), said that students could take four classes in summer school. I thought to myself, hmm, don't think so. I went to my son's school website and checked, and it says that a student can take two classes. Also, I read that there was a TAKS Camp to help students who had failed the TAKS, which led my mind in another direction and made me wonder about something you stated in your post. You said the school would not share the TAKS scores with you. I don't know why that didn't strike me as odd before. You should have received the results quite quickly, so your son could prepare to re-take the tests. He's given three opportunities to pass both the reading and math TAKS. If he failed either of those tests, he should be in TAKS prep courses to help him pass his retakes. Was this option ever given to him? Did his withdrawing from school and/or being busted keep him from being able to attend the prep courses and take the retakes? [/QUOTE]
