Thank you for posting this. I think it describes how things should be and could be in our public school if they cared more about academics than football.

My son is gifted and has hypotonia and his only difficulties were similar to "Jim's", at least before he turned 11 and had to start wearing a painful scoliosis brace that makes it difficult for him to sit for more than an hour without pain.

In my small town kids like this are not given any support like OT or anything else at school. They are told they need to home school. But it is good to see that some people actually understand that kids like mine can do very well academically if given the needed supports for the physical issues. In our state, in our town, and in our small rural school it seems that nobody understands, nobody cares, and we are on our own.
