[quote=Anonymous]What are his autistic presentations, besides social awkwardness? At Potomac, they are required to do a lot of public speaking. At some schools they are required to do team sports or activities. At some schools a uniform is required, so if he has sensory issues that would make “real” pants a problem, ask about that. At all of the high schools, homework and the ability to complete it in a reasonable amount of time will make life better. At all the high schools, grading will feel arbitrary, so if fairness is a trigger for him, avoid these schools. Hard to tell how they will serve him without knowing his presentation[/quote]
