[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it depends on the school.  Julius West is not a magnet, but does have a support class for those who need it.  A student can attend the class for any length of time (quarter, semester, yearly, or for all three years).

The class is called Academic Support Program. The goals are: 
- develop positive relationship with staff 
- earn Cs or better in core subjects 
- maintain 90% or higher attendance 
- develop organizational and self-advocacy skills 
- build positive social interaction and increase participation in social settings

My son had social and organizational issues, even though he had very high test scores, and was in advanced classes.  The ASP teacher met with him each morning for a full class.  There were 5-6 other students, each with their own unique issues.  The teacher was in daily contact with his other teachers and counselor, so that she could help him to overcome any deficiencies.  He attended for one semester, but checks in with his ASP teacher as needed throughout the year. [/quote]

Nice to know that have this and it is helpful..but we found they have very little for advanced students.[/quote]
