So far Nic's school year is going well-academically, his grades are all high As; socially, peer pressure is working in our favor. This time last year we were dealing with two hours in-class tantrums. This year, Nic is a hard worker spending nearly all of his day in his class with his peers, and his teacher is fully invested in his success.We have the aide, but he doesn't really need the aide.

I had a chat with his reg ed teacher and AS teacher both-got a good vibe from the reg ed teacher (she is tough, but Nic needs tough, and I was able to explain Nic to her, so I think she will handle him fine). The new … Read More …
