During the worst of my BPII in high school my grades sucked because I was dealing with everything else. I am 44 now so even back then they knew nothing about BP so I suffered until I tried saint Johns wort and I bounced back eventually and then got treated properly in my 20's.

I agree with managing the work load correctly. It's something I can discuss with his teachers so that he does not feel overwhealmed.
