My son is now 9 but in some ways functions at the age of about 6/7. He has mild autism but he has moments where it spikes to severe in certain situations. It does have daily impact.

If your son's school has great teachers with a great deal of knowledge on autism, they should be able to tell you what they will do and what you can do at home. How old is your son? How severe or mild is his autism?

Your child should qualify to receive free therapy services that are appropriate for his education through your local public school district. I want to share our advocacy resources with you:
Your Child’s Rights
IEP Guide, which includes educational advocacy information prepared by a law firm for Autism Speaks to share with our families
