[quote=Anonymous]DS is a teen with mild ADD. He has had a horrible year in HS: not consistently taking meds, fighting all attempts to offer supports (such as tutoring) and generally bad attitude about school. Otherwise, he is a good kid, no drugs, doesn't stay out late, etc. His rebellion is totally related to school.
We have a 504 plan which includes extra time on tests.
He is sooo mad about this, because there is standardized testing this week, and he is in a group which receives extended time as an accommodation. He states he completes his tests early and is totally bored during the extra time. We have talked about the possibility of deleting this accommodation because he says he doesn't need it. 
This am he was walking around cursing before school complaining about the extra time. When I offered to call and talk with the guidance counselor about leaving him with the regular group, he refused to agree.

Seems impossible to me. Should I call the guidance counselor and ask them to change it? Let him stay in extended time? And in general, I am so frustrated with his horrible attitude.

Please advise![/quote]
