He is pretty set on going away to college, like his big brother. It is his dream. I don’t want to take that away, but I don’t want to throw him to the wolves either.

I lean towards finding a very supportive school, where people get to know him. Currently, his teachers love him, because he participates, and is “a pleasure to have in class.” Also, he needs the DRC to be engaged, and continue the coaching process we have begun at home.

The school that chooses him will be taking a chance that with proper support, he can excel, regardless of his current stats, as those don’t show what he can do with proper support.

The question is finding that school. I welcome your suggestions, and your experience.
