[quote=Anonymous]My kid had a version of an abbreviated schedule in HS to accommodate seasonal depression. In the winter it was impossible for her to get to 1st period because it was still dark out. Her SAD meant she needed sunshine to function. We filled her 1st period with being a TA in a favorite subject with an understanding teacher. In fall and spring she went and was helpful to him. In winter, she was either sick or there but a zombie. It worked out great (except for the security guards that continually hassled her for being late despite an excusal note). She got a very nice letter of recommendation from him and went to an excellent college. In MS, there is a double period Alg 1 - not just a resource class, but actual longer Alg class for more processing time & more practice. Ask if there is smthg like that.[/quote]
