[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 396014, member: 2423"] A placement is based on needs, not on disability coding. However, do you believe that your son has an autism spectrum disorder? Has he been assessed privately for Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD)? If that were his diagnosis, the school district might not be talking about a placement for emotionally/behaviorally disturbed children. Forget the other kids in your child's classroom for a moment. Do you feel your child is having his educational needs met in this classroom setting? In other words, is he getting an appropriate education in the current setting? In your shoes, I'd recommend locating an educational advocate in your community.
