[QUOTE="klmno, post: 106152, member: 3699"] This might work different in your state, but my difficult child was put on homebound for the last quarter of last year. As it turns out, the teacher never found her way to our house, then said she came but we wouldn't let her in (NOT TRUE). Anyway, she would only have given 4-5 hours of instruction/week for core classes only. This of course, is hardly an adequate education. I wrote letters to the head of special education (for the district- outside the school) and to school board members. When they decided they would accept his grades from juvy (geeze, this was about 2 weeks at end of May-first of June, but he was out of school from Mar. 19 thru 2nd week of June), I went thru the roof and then wrote letters asking how they planned to make up for the educatioon they didn't provide or if they intended to make him take the grade over when it was them that didn't so their part. The point I'm trying to lead to here is that they can't fail him if they did not provide the education. But, my son has really struggled in the next grade up this year because he wasn't as prepared as he should have been. If I were you, I'd be whipping letters off to everyone in the school system now to make sure they are aware that you don;t intend to take this lying down. in my humble opinion!!!! [/QUOTE]
