[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’d email the teachers, let him advocate for himself when he gets in college.[/quote] Yes and no. Yes, email the teachers, get the ball rolling. But do encourage learning self advocacy now. College profs are notoriously less approachable than HS teachers. Before school, lunch, after school - all offer times that other kids aren't around and make it easier.[/quote] Also, if he is too anxious to talk to his high school teachers, it will not be easier in college. It sounds like he may need treatment for his social anxiety.[/quote]
