TX Online or TEFA Schools for Struggling 9th Grader
My son is 14, IEP for severe ADHD, dysgraphia, anxiety, and school related PTSD. He is currently enrolled in public school but receives homebound services because he has significant meltdowns when in school. This is a gradually improving situation but, practically speaking, he has had very little education this year.
He has been awarded a significant amount of TEFA funding in Texas for 9th grade and I know he needs to be online and home with me. What I do not know is if he can manage a self paced program without support. I work remote full time and am single. We’re enrolled in TX Connections Academy but would have to forfeit TEFA funding since it’s public/charter.
TEFA online schools seem to be less structured but I don’t really know. I’d like to use his funding for therapy plus tuition so need to find a private online school that’s no more than $10k. Any insight, advice, or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I’d forfeit TEFA funds if TX Connections Academy is truly the best for him but I feel like I’m running blind.
