[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP. We've been through this a number of times. It can be a dispiriting and exhausting process, but your DD sounds like she's buying in to the program and that is huge. It'll be OK.

As far as classes, the PHP should have experience with the academic angle for their clients. They'll have time set aside for schoolwork. Do their clients have access to online school portals (think Chromebooks or designated desktops)? The school counselor should coordinate with DD's teachers because this is a medical issue and it's not on you to discuss the situation with every staff member.

Which county are you in? [/quote]

We are in Montgomery County. They seem to be drastically understaffed in the counseling department at her school. In fact, as I've mentioned, I haven't even had contact with the counselor, only the Vice Principal who appears to be doing the counselor's job (?!). She is a junior and this is her third counselor. They changed the counselor assigned to her last name sophomore year, but that counselor was out on medical leave so we had a different one, who was great. The one on medical leave came back this year, but she still seems to be struggling so we have very little contact with her. So our main liaison seems to be the Vice Principal, and obviously he has many other responsibilities. Oh, and she also has a 504 plan so I don't know how that all comes into play, either. [/quote]
