Default Buffy, have the doctor help you in this way

Buffy, there are a few ways the doctor and the school can help you.

What I would do to start is go to the special education department,
and the 504 team. And ask how you go about getting a reduced day.

Explaining that your son can't seem to function till, say after 9:30am.

And that you need to set his day up this way. ALso there might be
some testing that needs done. In this way you would request a
educational evaluation be done for a emotional handicap.

But they can reduce his day, by having him start his day later in
the day. I definately in his case, if you can get him to school part
of the day would not have him homebounded completely.

They could add a tutor for say 1 hour after school and do the class
he misses.
