[quote=Anonymous]DC is not a great student but has always gotten by with mostly A, B, and a couple of C's. He has dyslexia, dysgraphia, and bad ADHD. This year he is struggling with English class. He is failing all the quizzes and tests on books because, despite studying (with me), he says the teacher asks the most random questions and he is getting a 1 out of 5. To make matters worse DC does not like to talk to about his difficulties (the teacher said he should go see her for help) and he would rather fail than sit through a session with the teacher. The school does not offer any supports other than extended time. I don't know if I should reach out to the teacher again (although I don't know what I would ask for since she isn't going to curve anything) , or should I just resign myself that he is going to have to take this class again in the summer. He got a D 1st quarter and has an F for 2nd quarter. Feeling really discouraged and super anxious about this.[/quote]
