Well… I’m very happy that school is working out much better for your son now, and that you didn’t need to resort to more extreme measures.

This post has made me happy.

We tried to word with the district, the counselors, the IEPs and the meetings even as our son, who was having issues that made attending school impossible, was missing first weeks, then months of classes. Yes, the school provided in home tutors, but they were not qualified to teach 5 subjects. It eventually became clear that something had to change. We still tried to hang in there (we have two other kids who would be uprooted by the move) but eventually decided to take what seemed at the time to be a radical step and move to a neighboring district that had a reputation for being more special education friendly. My only regret is that we didn’t do it sooner. Being in a district with an responsive special education program changed everything. Within two weeks we were piloting a customized program that had never been tried before. When that didn’t work, the district funded a spectacular (and very expensive) school outside of the district. Every situation is different, of course, but for us the seemingly extreme path was ultimately the path of least resistance. Our son graduates college this May and is off to grad school. Good luck all…
