Which school districts in So Cal offer the best public schools for children with autism?

Question

We are being relocated to Southern California and we are trying to decide where to live. Our biggest criteria being the public schools and the programs they offer for children with special needs. Our 7 year old has mild Autism and ADHD and he does not do so well in a traditional classroom with 20 kids. Any suggestions?

Answer 1

There are many hear in CA. I work for Riverside Unified School District. We have a good program for kids with autism. There are many programs that may fit your son. At the school I work for we have several programs. there is SDC, SED, SH, PASD. All programs are 15 or less. It depends where he is placed. I work in PASD which is profound (low functioning) autism spectrum disorder at high school level. So I dough he would be placed in this one. But we work closely with the other classes, and they may be better suited for your son. Also try Riverside County of Education. They have special classes all through out Riverside County.
