[QUOTE="klmno, post: 526232, member: 3699"] Yep- the sd is making issue over the lab time. Really, they told me they have only one chemistry teacher and this state requires 3 lab science classses to get a standard diploma, much less an advanced so the 2 chemistry classes they have are over-booked. The lab time has to be an excuse because Department of Juvenile Justice schools (not to be mistaken with detention "education") are acredited and NO Department of Juvenile Justice school has a big typical HS lab yet kids are able to get a state-acredited HS diploma in a Department of Juvenile Justice HS. It's really just another situation where I can't help it that the various state agencies are too busy covering arrears to coordinate a way to really meet state laws. If it's a lab class, there should be a lab. Now then- why are they claiming they can give an adequate education to kids in detention or Department of Juvenile Justice? on the other hand, if they aren't considered violent offenders and the state is claiming they have accredited Department of Juvenile Justice HS, how do you add that up? It's a much bigger issue than me. All I can do is keep trying to bring it to the fore front so people maybe will stop hiding in the sand. Dinner is finishing in the oven, my son is working on putting 'furniture' together for his bedroom. The cake is made and in the fridge- I've already warned him that it will take me a while to get back into the swing of things and be able to do a better job. LOL! Somehow I'm thinking he's going to take good care of the stuff in his bedroom now. I told him he can arrange it however he wants. He told me maybe it's better that he doesn't have a bigger bedroom like he used to- he said it seemed lonely and empty. The counselor is working on transitioning from adolescent way of thinking to young adult way of thinking. Whatever it is, I have my son back for right now and I am thanking God for it! I don't think child-rearing is an all-or-nothing (success or failure) anymore. I think it's about how much quality we can get in there whether they are 2 or 4 or 14 or 30. JMHO at the moment.
