[QUOTE="JJJ, post: 244081, member: 1169"] Totoro, The problem with Tigger generally is the other kids so they are taking that away and helping him develop the skills he needs to positively interact with them. The first week he is suppose to start with a lunch buddy coming in each day to allow him to meet some kids 1:1 and also a recess buddy for some 1:1 playtime. Ideally, within a month he will be in the Learning Disability (LD) room for math (with 1-3 other kids) and hopefully in fine arts and gym with the MMR class (we're calling him their 'helper' since cognitively he is leaps and bounds ahead of them). The long term goal is for him to learn the coping skills he needs and go back to his homeschool. His principal and current sped teacher are going to visit him at the new school. He will stay in the orchestra which meets two mornings per week at his old school so he will get to say "hi" every week; he also remains eligible for afterschool activities at both buildings. I think this will be good for him. It is just hard today because he is so devastated. I'm also nervous because I LOVE the staff at our homeschool and now I have to build all new relationships because this is a newer building and I've never had a kid go there before. [/QUOTE]
