Hi, Christina,

It is always good to hear from you.
I love his pic.
And I agree that a piercing (except in the tongue --eek) is better than a tattoo.

The schools will lie and they do flat out lie.
They will do whatever they can to avoid helping students who are not exactly average students.
(I know this because I was a hs and middle school teacher).

Bobi / Bdix30 on BT knows a lot about this stuff. She had to work hard to help one of her sons and I think also one of her neices. Also, perhaps her masters is in this area -- I know that she has been advocating for others for awhile. If you have not already, contact her and see what she says.
