[QUOTE="svengandhi, post: 83962, member: 3493"] The SD decided to give him a chance in honors science, which gets high school credit, as does the math. The first month of school is over and things are going pretty well for my son. At Open House, the honors science teacher mentioned that he had given one test and the results were "not pretty." My son, the one the principal said did not belong in the class, got a 100! He loves the class and is working hard to do well. Ditto for the advanced math. He is struggling still in English, but really likes his teacher, who has an Aspie son so knows how to deal with out of the box kids. He has pronounced her "very nice for a teacher of English!" His SS teacher had my oldest son (Aspie boy) and loves this one - asked him if oldest boy was driving a tank yet! The child is doing his reading and writing for this class. We did have some issues with gym - told the teacher he doesn't "do laps!" and told the chorus teacher he did not approve of her choice of music for the winter concert, but we got past those and he is now doing his work. We are getting a tutor for foreign language, but the teacher had oldest boy, who was on the middle school team which took second place against a roster of high schools several years ago, so he is enthused about having this one. I wish I could relate foreign lang to math or science and he would love it. Anyway, I wanted to thank you, Sheila, Martie and Kimmo, who took the time to respond to me. I try to pay it forward by recommending the forum, Wrights Law and other resources to other parents I meet who need it. P.S. - At about the same time, my rising 6th grader was accepted into a private Learning Disability (LD) school which specializes in high functioning dyslexics. The SD is paying. I am happy because he is not exposed to the principal from hell. He is happy and learning and has peers. [/QUOTE]
