[QUOTE="Steely, post: 504054, member: 3301"] Buddy what does EBD stand for? Is that the same as Alternative School? Are you in a big city or a small one? In Dallas the Alt school was FULL of juvenile delinquents, gangs, etc. I refused to let Matt go there. Perhaps it would have been easier than the route I took - but hey - he is 21 and not a drug addict or ever been arrested - so I think that says something. What I didn't know at the time in all of this is that IF the school cannot properly service my child - AND - his psyche determined that Alt School would not either - than by law they had to provide homebound services. Sounds like you know that - so that is great. I believe you can also get them to pay for a private school too, if the SD deems they cannot school him. Had Matt been able to take his electives at the school, and have a teacher come to the home to do the rest - it would have been amazing. Instead we went the route I have already mentioned -- and really I would do it over again. He loved going to the Community College and taking the classes there - and then we had social groups we joined, etc. After a couple of years our whole world fell apart - and all of that came to a screeching halt - but that is a completely other story.
