[QUOTE="keista, post: 446624, member: 11965"] I'm guessing he does not have an IEP in place yet. Will he be attending the same school as before? For his sake, I'm hoping he'll get a fresh start. I would start by requesting an IEP and a PRIVATE meeting with the guidance counselor. I say 'private' meaning only to exclude your GS. By middle and HS they want the kids to be involved in their own IEPs. This is great, and should happen, but for your GS, I think it would benefit him if the staff knew where he was "coming from". Sounds like he needs a lot more [B]positive reinforcements [/B]than negative consequences. You can get the process started right now before school starts. Make a pleasant pest of yourself, if you must. Get the records from the old school (assuming he's changing schools) ASAP. Welcome to the board. You've found a great place for support, guidance and insights. PS If you don't get more responses here, post a thread in the General Parenting section. Everyone has different ways of scanning the threads, and over the summer, this one seems a bit "neglected" [/QUOTE]
