Gee, thanks Michelle! There are days that I really doubt myself and my
parenting--I'm certainly not perfect!
 It's always nice to get some 'rah rah' feedback.......it sure gave me an
uplifted heart.  :0)

Got an e-mail from the Econ teacher today. He's creating a special test for
Alex. Alex will come in on exam day with the rest of the class and work on
the test. HOWEVER, he can bring it home to check over, correct and finish
with us or his case load teacher (it will be us).

We're currently working on his 'senior exit exam', the last of Alex's over
break homework.  They have to put together a presentation to be given in
front of the class about who they are and where they're going using a power
point program as well.
Alex asked for some help with an outline and a few ideas but has been
working on the core of it on his own. We'll then go over it together and
'fine tune' it. It has to be 5-6 min long........that's a long speech!
He'll have to do the power point at school....that may take some time after
school.
