Facing Expulsion

I'm so glad things are going well. I hope that we here at City-Data helped.

That is great news. But didn't homebound seem like a year long banishment into isolation?

So glad to hear this, and that your son made it through with his parents' help.

Thank you for the update. I'm glad that it worked out and he can graduate with his class.

It is really nice when posters return with updates. I appreciate it very much and a lot of others on C-D do as well.

Like everyone else, I am glad it got worked out in a way that allowed him to graduate on time.

The homebound started out a little slow but once they knew I was going to be involved and ask a million questions, things really improved.

I am glad he will graduate.

I'm glad everything is going good. Far too often, the future of a teenager isn't decided by them, but rather forced upon them by over zealous people in a position of authority, as well as zero tolerance and other stupid laws/rules. It is good to hear you managed to find a reasonable way to not have your child's future destroyed.

Thank you so much for the update. I can only imagine how difficult this challenge has been for you and your family. Good luck!
