Awww thank you so much all of you for taking the time to comment!!!! And yes emma is in a ESE self contained preschool class. She made number 8. We got the last spot In the class. So there will never be more then 8 kids in the class. But because it is ese self contained it is the age of 3-5. And due to emma have a September birthday she will actually be with this teacher and the 2 aids she has all next school year as well.
I agree w/ AnnaMcElroy- is she in a special needs class especially the small spec ed class?
She has to test her limits like any other kid. That preschool is not for her. Does your state have an "Autism Intervention Program"?
