It might be possible to move him back to the afternoon group, but schedule-wise that is actually a bit hard for us right now. I'm see how timing gets sorted out and see about moving him back if we can.
We're only planning to send him there till the end of December. I figure by that time he really won't have much at all in common with them and he'll have formed some good friendships at independent study and his other classes. We really wanted to give him the continuity of staying at this school through the beginning of "official" school and all the changes that involves.
