[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP you will find the preschool programs vary widely. You definitely want to check them out. When I was in Florida, my son was in a preschool for kids with language delays. It was brilliant and he started putting together phrases immediately. Then we moved, and he was in a special ed preschool in the morning, and a regular preschool in the afternoon. At conference time, the special ed teacher told me he was severely delayed, likely autistic, didn't know any of his colors or letters and didn't play with anyone. The next day, I had a conference at the typical preschool. The teacher told me he was doing wonderfully knew all his letters and colors, played with everyone, and was the smartest kid in the room! Same kid. Different teachers. Different programs. Different preconceived notions.[/quote] It's also true that many regular ed teachers aren't as aware of subtle ASD characteristics if the child is bright and high functioning.[/quote]
