In Need of Advice.

Hi there, a little backstory is needed. I was placed in Running start my junior year for Winter quarter. This was after I moved out of 17 because I was in a dangerous enviornment. I had a close friend in Seattle whom I have moved in with. I have since started working at a Starbucks in Seattle and supporting myself. It took so long and I had to fight really hard to get any and all meetings and eventually I succeeded when I threatened to have my parents pull me from school. It finally got their attention but it took over 3 months.

I am 18 now and facing acedemic probation. With being new to working and dealing with health and emotional problems I couldn't dedicate myself to the last quarter. Winter quarter I had a 94.6% average which dropped to a 32.1%. I called my (highschool) counselor to sort out options. She said I could take summer classes and earn 2 credits I needed and that she would email the information to me. She also set up a meeting with me for the next week. Today I showed up for our meeting and she didn't. The staff were all in the back eating donuts from a box and laughing about graffiti on the school wall. After 45 minutesI was approached by the Office Manager and asked who I was waiting on. I said that my counselor and I had a meeting.

The manager then told me that she would be out of her meeting in about an hour to two hours. I had my boyfriend drive me an hour from Seattle and wasn't going to make him wait. So I left her my number and she promised to have either my counselor give me a call or she would do it herself. She didn't call and I'm panicking. My counselor hasn't sent the information either.

I have no idea what to do and I'm being shirked off so easily. They did this before for three months straight and this is important. I'm an [18F] with no idea how to get their attention and how to continue on with Running Start. I can't do high school hours and be able to pay rent. I've alsways tested very high and I'm a good student with good study habots. What do I do?
