[quote=Anonymous]What was at the root of school refusal? Can she retake any of the classes she failed and replace the grade? I had a sort of mini school refusal in high school due to serious family issues but was able to turn it around and retake the failed classes. Also it sounds like she is self-motivated if she’s doing well in the AP classes on her own? I’m not sure she needs to be pushed to limit her choices to small, unambitious SLACs. Sometimes we do better mentally when we are appropriately challenged and assuming that she needs to be wrapped in cotton and not challenged may not be right. She deserves a chance to consider a broad range of options - for example she may be a candidate for a public flagship where high test scores balance out a lower GPA. [/quote]
