Guest guest Posted March 4, 2011 Report Share Posted March 4, 2011 Hey- I am mostly a reader. I am trying to learn as much as I can. I have already introduced myself but my 13 year old was diagnosed in Nov with borderline aspies, ADHD, anxiety and mood disorder. I contacted the school gave them the paperwork. We had the first meeting and I was amazed. I was scared what was going to happen after reading some of your stories you all have had to go through. We planned what we want to try for my son- and all teachers were informed what they need to do for the month. I have even had one teacher print out his missing assignments and ask if he had any of them done to turn it- so they ARE doing what they said. We go back in next month- after spring break and discussed what worked and any other ideas and put the plan into effect. He goes to high school next year and I have been afraid he is going to be lost. They did say he can not have a IEP because he in in the GATE program because of his high IQ. The only thing I am not fond of is here in Idaho once the child is 14 they have to be involved in the 504 meeting- at least signing of it. So they want him there this year- so we are going to have to tell him what his diagnoses is.Some days feel so hopeless that I wanted to share this good. Days like this are good. Since we started working with the teachers my sons grades have all gone up- he only has one F right now instead of 3 (including a 16% and 18%) and he is finishing those assignments this week.Jerri Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
