[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 260554, member: 3444"] Janet, depending on what day you ask him difficult child 2 will answer differently. If he's getting picked on at school that day, he'll tell you he wants to go to the GATE school where no one will know him. If it's a tough homework day, he'll say he doesn't want to be in GATE classes. FOP, the GATE school is public, so no money involved. He has an IEP, so they HAVE to make accommodations for him, and he would likely also need to be in a social skills class like he has now (which means he gets one less elective class). The more I ponder this, the more I think I should just sign him up for the spot and then revisit this in August to see how the summer goes. And I might also make an appointment with the GATE school's counselor to get their take on things. [/QUOTE]
