I am an attorney and advocated for our kids, but it was still very challenging for us an the HS. The teachers didn’t like having to prepare homework packets for our kids so frequently and it was very tough to keep up with languages especially with frequent and prolonged absences. Our kids didn’t get much in the way of accommodations either. Happily, our kids did both end up at a U that worked well for them. The U was happy to work with our kids and our kids got their degrees.
