Internationally and in our home countries, the number of students on the autism spectrum is increasing. In fact, in some estimates, the numbers are 1 in 45! At ISB, we have students on the autism spectrum at each division. How can we best serve our students with ASD? To answer this question, we’ll delve into the basics of autism. What is it and what does current research tell us about it? Lori Boll will share her experiences as both the parent of a child with ASD and as a special educator with experience teaching children with mild to profound special needs. You should walk out of this workshop with some new strategies for your tool belt in working with these incredible students.
