Hi there, we are moving back to the Chicago area and could use some help choosing a school district with excellent special ed services. We have a 7 year old high functioning autistic son on an IEP who receives help with speech, writing and math. He also needs to have teachers that are experienced with autistic students, since he is primarily in a mainstream classroom.

We've heard good things about Naperville Dist 204 but wonder if anyone has experience with St. Charles/Geneva schools? Those are two towns we'd really like to consider. But school is a big priority for our son.

Thanks in advance for your help!

I'll let you know next week. I am having a meeting with the team at our school to get accomodations for my child (writing - keyboard) he has just been through the evaluation. He was screened a couple years ago and nothing came of that - I know now that it is up to you to request these things.

I have not heard of any other stories specifically dealing with autistic students though.
