This program initially will serve a class of no more than 10 students in ninth and 10th grades who have been diagnosed on the autism spectrum.

College Tips
|
|
Get a Head Start
Talk to your student about taking AP or dual-credit classes to get a better idea of the academic rigor ahead of them. Not only will this prepare them for the college classroom, but also provides them with the opportunity to gain college credit before becoming a student at a university. Universities will notice your student's hard work, which might set them apart from other applicants. Ask your student to talk to a counselor and see what their school has to offer.
