[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 394706, member: 3444"] Thanks DDD, those are good things to know. Mary, he's probably not going straight to a UC or even a CSU program (unless we can really get his mood issues AND health issues under control). My plan for now is 2 years community college because I think the pace would be slower and the pressure less. He's not in any honors or AP classes now and really could not handle the pace of those at this point, even though he is a bright kid with a high IQ. We saw the therapist again today. He stressed that I should get the letter written to the school ASAP, drop it off on Monday so the clock can start ticking for the new assessment for an IEP under OHI. The last time I requested an assessment in 8th grade, his issues seemed more mood related, and he wasn't having nearly the level of IBS problem that he has now. But since he's on home/hospital and is clearly affected by the IBS, it shouldn't be a problem asking to get him into Special Education for a resource class. Whether or not we keep him in this school is the next decision, but it can't be addressed until we get the school to agree to the OHI/IEP. Once that happens, the door is wide open for whatever he needs. Ironically, the therapist's daughter is conducting her psychology internship at difficult child 1's school AND the therapist is a former professor of the school psychologist!!! If that's not an ace up our sleeve, I don't know what is! :winks: [/QUOTE]
