[QUOTE="stepmom47, post: 94707, member: 4240"] My difficult child is has had trouble in school now for 3 years. I called the school yesterday to get an update from the counsler on the homework situation. I asked her about difficult child moving into the next grade next year. She stated that they look at the grades and ISAT scores to determine if they can go onto the next grade. OK...he is failing 4 out of 8 classes. She tells me that if his isat scores are good they will still pass him. So I say to her...what? He is highly intelligent on his isat's but cannot pass courses. Why on earth would you let him pass into the next grade? She states that is the districts policy!! I get total mis communication from everyone at school. Teachers email to tell me he is still failing and counsler says: difficult child has no missing work and is doing fine. I have asked that counsler has privite meetings with difficult child but she still does group with him. I have advised everyone from the principal to office lady that there are obvious problems. They all say difficult child is a great kid!!! We are trying the best we can with no help from the school:( They just let him fail...what is wrong with these schools???? I also asked about him seeing the school social worker and they told me she only works with Special Education kids... All suggestions are appreciated and welcome [/QUOTE]
