As the mother of an autistic child, I don’t recommend Rossville School. They haven't experience with autistic children and don’t follow my son's Individualized Education Program (IEP) regarding how he should be taught; they treat him as if he were a neurotypical child who understands everything. It doesn't matter if the teacher has an assistant or not, the result is always the same: they exclude my child from activities and don't address his needs, as everything remains only on paper. By law, an autistic child is enrolled in these schools with typically developing children his age so that he can be included, not excluded, and so that he can participate in and progress through the general curriculum alongside the other children. But at this school, no matter what you say, do, or who you talk to, the teacher will always say there isn't enough time or support to teach him according to his IEP. At this point, I still don't understand the purpose of the IEP if they don't put it into practice.
