[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is anyone else surprised that Florida has such a program when none of our local states do?[/quote] Not really. The FL Gardiner grant is $10k so more than MD’s LISS scholarship, but far less than a private school for kids with ASD. You can’t receive a Gardiner scholarship and attend public school. The list of disabilities covered under a Gardiner scholarship are the ones that are expensive for school systems to educate (with the exception of high functioning autism). Downs syndrome, cerebral palsy, intellectually impaired, deaf, visually impaired, TBI. FL likely saves money not having to offer services in public schools.[/quote]
