[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]it's like the pope, once you're in there you're in there for life (well, end of 8th grade anyway). But I'm pretty sure some have decided to withdraw.[/quote]

I withdrew my child.  We weren't kicked out but the teacher made it clear to me she didn't think it was working.

Child had excellent testing-in scores but just is not motivated and cannot focus, has difficulties with math, disorganized, etc.  [/quote]

It sounds as though you child my have ADHD.   Have you had him/her evaluated for it?  I have two boys, both diagnosed.  They are very disorganized (just took one to a tennis lesson and he forgot his racquet and we had to go home to get it).  It is a challenge, but once diagnosed, there are coping mechanisms and the school will accommodate special steps (sit at the front, teacher checks backpack at the end of the day, etc.).  In significant cases there are medications that work wonders.  If you haven't reviewed this, it is worth a closer look.[/quote]
