sometime next week.
So Tre' will be back at school soon enough.
I really dread him going back, cause I know it will be rough on us all. But I do believe the school system here needs to step up and accomadate (sp) this type of child.

Do they not have a BIC class. The school district I am in has a Behavior Intervention Class that my son. They use the Boys town method of teaching where they earn points for good behavior and lose them for bad behavior. The class is only for children who have ODD, and other disorders that keep them from being in a large classroom. They learn at their own pace and my son has learned more in this class than he did in all his years in the regular classroom. He is on grade level now, but they work with him on the things that he has a hard time with. I would ask the school about this. Our district has to provide bus transportation even if it is not his home school.

I do not think they have this type of thing in our school system. But I talked with the ARC coordinator (sp) causei had to reschedul the meeting and she was telling me about other things they can do with Tre' to help him.
Like you said about the chart we are doing that type of thing here at the house. It seems to be working, too.
