He was pulled out by his TVI who worked with him one on one on his technology in the office that they have at school. He was graded by his TVI and he was granted the required computer credit.

And here is the clincher, if he does fail it, he has to repeat it next year.  Gee, if they don't give him the education to use JAWS and such I don't think it will matter how many times he repeats it.
