School schedules

[Guest guest]

My ds (15) is in the process of picking classes for next year. So we decide to

put him in only the advanced subjects he likes. I sign the form and he takes it

back to school. So one teacher crosses out a class and puts him in honors

class. He is already a year ahead in this subject, and son and I decided he

should just take the regular version of the class, since he really doesn't love

the subject.

I'm sure the teacher meant well, since son is doing good in her class. But I

don't think it should've been changed, without parent consent. My ds isn't

going to challenge an authority figure. The school, also has no idea about his

ocd last year. So I told my son to just change it back, and if anyone questions

it, tell them I did it. Do these teachers not realize that kids just might have

other stuff going on, and I signed the form with those classes for a reason. I

carefully helped him pick classes that we felt would best fit his personality,

and also providie him with an appropriate work load.

I am tempted to bring up my annoyance with the school office, but don't know if

I should just keep my mouth shut. Thanks for letting me vent.
