Wow it sounds as though your school district is awesome. They tried to get me to send him to alternative but then told me that if he goes there he will lose all of his special education status but I can see how if it is only part time it wouldn't affect it.

He did a stint in alternative ed back in 2005 as an expulsion for taking a knife to school and threatening a child. This was before his diagnosis, we all got help immediately and both he and I got a diagnosis of Bipolar, his one, mine 2. We are also looking now at the possibility of Anxiety Disorder which would explain his problem taking tests and his beginnings of an ulcer.

He wants to get an education and we are doing what we can to keep him in school, also we want to keep him from becoming socially stunted so keeping him in the school system is good for that and getting use to the fact that the world is not all running in fields of daisies lol.
