She can't switch classes at this point. She can drop non-essential classes such as photography or the 10th grade earth systems science class and take study hall instead up until something like next week, but she cannot, for instance, drop pre-AP bio and take regular bio or change regular history for pre-AP history.
I left a msg for her counselor last night to call me. The counselor apparently pulled dd out today to talk to her and her suggestion is dropping one of the aforementioned classes and taking study hall. Dd isn't too keen on that but it might not be a bad idea. Dd's reasoning is that she has A+s in both of those classes, they don't have a lot of homework, and she really loves photo. Also, she's not the best @ doing homework in school with the distractions of other students in a study hall and isn't sure how much she'd catch up that way.
It is the only solution they have to offer, though, and reducing homework load isn't something they are willing to put in a 504 apparently. Dd said that the counselor suggested that she approach her teachers individually and try to see if she can negotiate something like that.
