[quote=Anonymous]My son who was in 9th grade started with school refusal and texting to ask to leave school. His attendance rate in 9th grade was around 70%. The school did NOT seem to care because he was willing to do work when he was home and submit it on time. His teachers just let him take quizzes and tests when he returned or excused him because he was a quiet, hardworking kid who never caused any problems. He has a 504 plan for another reason so maybe that is also why teachers made it easy for him to keep up. I called and/or emailed his school counselor, another counselor at the school who was supposed to meet with him but never did), the school psychologist and assistant principal. Not one of them was helpful. What worked was medication for anxiety and cbt therapy. 10th grade is so much better. [/quote]
