Subject: End of my tether....!!

Hi all

I am at the end of my tethe r. I am a single

mom of two autistic boys, full time student, about to move house and put

my kids into public school for the first time which I am already concerned

about.

I have tried to be prepared. I have a great

(fantastic!) advocate who is waiting for me to register to the boundried

schools so we can get certain things in place before the boys

start school. I have had records/completed paperwork etc. from my

eldest son's school and therapists with no problems at all but I am finding it

impossible to get the records from my youngest son's private school in

Davie. I had an arrangement with the principal that she would have everything

back to me eight weeks ago and still nothing. My texts and phone messages

are not even being responded to any more (they were initially responded to with

messages that she had more important things to do) and I know for a fact

she is around.

At the end of term (beginning of June) I made arrangements

with the principal to pay the last month's tuition as soon as I could but that

this would not hold up the paperwork. I have left messages that I have

the tuition to pay to her but still no response.

Can anyone give me any advice?

Thanks.
