This was all last year - grade 10. The next two years are very critical for admission to higher ed.
Late to the party here. I'd just like to single out this comment. I'd suggest not worrying about admission to higher ed. The anxiety that the
New York Times and status-oriented parenting ratchets up about college admissions just doesn't apply to most Americans. There will be routes to college for your child. He doesn't have to go when he's 18. He can go to the open-admissions state university. He can take courses at community college when he's ready and get recommendations that will help him move to a four-year school--when he's ready to achieve.
The rest of it, especially the sleep and the school refusal, sound so hard. But if you take college admissions out of the equation you can focus on what matters to him now.
