Distance Learning High School For Autistic Students
Many students with autism, autism spectrum disorder (ASD), or Asperger’s Syndrome find traditional high schools both frustrating and overwhelming. Typically, children with ASD or Asperger’s Syndrome are intelligent students with who can develop a keen interest in a particular subject. Often, they are not well rounded, but would like to take advanced classes the subject or two they excel in.
Children with Asperger’s or ASD often struggle socially. One of the symptoms of Asperger’s Syndrome is that people with Asperger’s have trouble reading social cues, whether they’re verbal cues or physical cues. Children with Asperger’s have trouble reading facial expressions. These traits often make it hard for children with Asperger’s or ASD to fit in socially in a traditional high school. Sometimes children with Asperger’s feel isolated and lonely because they have trouble making friends or sustaining relationships. Sometimes children with ASD are targeted by bullies, which can lead to frustration and depression. Parents of children with Asperger’s or ASD often worry for the safety of their children at traditional schools.

Another Misleading Report About High School Dropouts and Income
So, below I have reproduced the take home table in a new report on the social/economic loss resulting from high school dropouts in America, and the major gains we could make if we could just get people to graduate.
Of course, this argument is totally ridiculous. Among other things, it assumes the following:
- That if inner-city kids got high school diplomas they would automatically also head up into the next income strata.
- That having or not having a diploma is THE key influence on one’s income strata.
- That new graduates would have the same academic rigor and opportunity of prior graduates.
