Yeah, knowing whereabouts you live, I just pulled the school stats. Cali has a goal of 800 API based on the standardized testing. It looks like BV is at 860, well above the target, plus it was a Distinguished School in 2006. Fairmont...only at 765. I just got those here so I would try and get the official numbers from the district to take to court.
That combined with it being out of your area will work strongly in your favor I would think.
I am sure your signature would be required unless the judge makes an order giving him custody for that year. That's why he's so worked up about this. If he could do it on his own he already would have.
S10 is gonna be upset about it until he changes schools, makes some friends, and gets more settled. It'll be a rough transition, but things will settle back down in a few months.
I can't imagine having a cellphone at 10. I was 21 before I got my first one LOL.
