[quote=Anonymous]This is a tough thing because he is in, what, 7th or 8th grade? If you help him selectively with the assignments for classes he is struggling in, you may miss an overarching problem or motivation issue. If you just let him figure it out, he might sink more than is optimal. Does the current school (or did the previous one) systematically teach executive skills? You say you're hearing two different things from the teachers. Does he have a homeroom teacher or advisor? What does that teacher say? Have you spoken with the counselor for his grade? You never saw hints of disorganization or other issues prior to the change of schools? How is his social adjustment in the new school? [/quote]
