[quote=Anonymous]Just to share my story, I hope one day my son, who is at a 1st grade level reading and math, but in a self contained autism classroom gets to where your daughter is. He's in K.

Its about his behavior.

But he has advanced academically and behaviorally in the sped ed classroom.

Although its so heart breaking not to see him w/in a typical gen ed classroom.

Also, at his previous school the aides were phenomenal. Some of them future students heading to law school, etc.

I am also hoping to be an aide and I have my bachelors in a science field and have done so many ABA courses.

My son's aides are not native English speakers, so you never know what you are going to get. Though I have seen really good BCBAs train *anybody* and they do an excellent job -- barring the English fluency part, which is a big deal since that's what we are targeting in Autism, but I digress.

I don't have an opinion per say, only to share that great progress can be made in a self-contained classroom, although, like you, I would also like my son to be more included in gen ed activities.[/quote]
