I am very sorry that he continues to be a PIA. If I were you, I'd go ahead and start checking out some of the schools that your son could possibly go to, but I wouldn't share that info w/your h at this time. As for notifying the school that he's attending, why would you need to tell them now? I would think that this is something would be done later in the school year.
Have you spoken to the school accounting department to see if you could possibly set up some sort of payment plan to cover the half your h won't be paying? I know you would prefer he attend this school, maybe if you explained the situation to them, they may be able to offer some suggestions in the way of finances.
Right now your xh's focus is on moving and he couldn't care less about you or his son. It's shameful and I'm not surprised he didn't make the appointed time to sit down w/his son and explain the situation to him. As for him being in a financial crunch, I don't buy it and I'm sure you don't either. Why? Because he doesn't know what next year will bring money wise and to announce it now just tells me he's a selfish PIA.
I hope that something comes along and changes his mind as nothing is more important than a good education and a child who is happy w/his school.
Take care.
Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to. The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.
