I haven't posted in a long time because it's been busy & DS has not been the squeaky wheel. However, I feel like I'm neglecting what he needs & should be more on top of things. We're currently dealing with public schools but I'm thinking about our other options. DS could do an IB program close by, to a science magnet farther away in a "bad" section of town or he says he'd love to HS. However, I have to work. I know there are others that make it work - how do you do it? Does anyone have experience with any of these?
He loves science, wants to get his PhD in Biology & go help the oil spill since he read it could be decades before fully fixed. I have not seen anything other than very basic science taught in elementary with my girls. He whips through assignments & misses directions. IB offers more project based learning & the magnet is a science specialty. HS is intriguing but I don't know how to make it work schedule wise. Sorry for the ramble, it's just so confusing trying to make the right choices.
