Someone needs to care.

I spent yesterday morning trying to get Dalmar back in school.  The school had given him 9 days suspension The whole incident started because he refused to take some kind of test that non-English speakers must take.  (He said he had taken it before and passed it.  Apparently the law says he has to take it again.  ) At the moment he is back in school and the school counselor was very helpful. BUT my question is:  I have seen these kids go “down the tubes” in our country.  Many  adolescent children of refugees have been in trouble: gangs, drugs, etc.  They often come from one dire situation only to enter another by moving into lower income areas and attending troubled schools. What I wonder is if anyone can think of how to help these kids?  Someone needs to care.
