Thank you, we are in Long Beach, California.

The little guy is in a Pre-K through the school district and there is concern if he will be able to handle regular kindergarten next September. Right now he is in a class with 4 kids, being in a class with 20-30 is going to be tough, especially when he is no longer the favorite LOL and he can’t sit still either. Also, it’s not fair to the other kids for him to be such a distraction that they can’t learn, but he is so dang smart it doesn’t seem fair to put him in the special needs class when he is so far ahead of those kids.

I know it’s a long way off but I am thinking that if he does need meds maybe find the right one and work out any side effects before school starts?
