“Father Fleckenstein says for privacy reasons, he could not talk about the situation in its entirety.”
Coward.
Funny how we let our emotions take hold and make snap decisions without thinking. What is the school's responsibility for handling special cases? Do they have to expend time/effort/money on any and all "special needs" that crop up?
I can't see where it is the school's responsibility to keep her on track - she went through a terrible ordeal and it looks like her life is not to be forfeit - perhaps backing up and regrouping and continuing with a couple year delay isn't really such a bad thing. Else, we may as well condone bending all the common sense rules to ensure that minorities get good grades and scholarships for not being able to read or apply themselves to actually earn the grades...oh, wait....
There is more to the story than the tear-jerker, pile on the school story here and some of us are taking the bait - against a Christian school no less.
