Hello everyone:
The district has determined that my difficult child is ready to transition back to the High school. He has been out of district since the very start of the 6th grade. He will be starting as a sophomore next fall if all goes as planned.
He is doing well academically at the very small Special Education high school. He is still sometimes in TOR and hasn't stayed on level in the past month. He does play sports at the district high school and was in the musical there. He did have a fight with a boy on the football team. Over all his attitude there is good. Especially with the director of the musical who gave him a substantial role which he handled without incident and turned in a good performance. (The football team definitely had some bullies; wrestling and baseball seem fine.)
He wants to return but as the year closes seems apathetic. District has always been his goal.
I am seeking advice--when do you know it is time? how to prepare? How to fight it? How to be sure it doen't fall apart!
Any thoughts?
