I don't know what to do with Ken's school any more. If it's not one thing it's another. It's like they don't know what to do with a family who is willing to argue with what they think they can do. What am I supposed to do, just lay down and let them walk all over him??? HELL NO!!!

Ken has Aspbergers syndrome which is a high functioning form of autism. He is 19 yrs old and sometimes is hard to understand, but he is an amazing young man with the potential to do anything he wants with his life. He went to Norquest because the program he wanted to take is available there. Unfortunately for him, they have changed the course and don't think there is anything wrong with that at all. They have changed the Digital Graphics Communication course to one that is very similar to their pre-press program. He can't and doesn't want to take press work. Because of his health issues, he can't work in the press room. It's terribly annoying that they told us one thing and then changed it all without any warning. We have sent them a letter and told them to look into what is going on and to stop making his life so miserable.

One thing is for certain, the school doesn't know what they are in for. Maybe I will go and take that course at McEwan about Disability services. hmmmmm
