Answer 2

He could go to a public school if he isn't too low functioning( I have Asperger's and went there for elementary and am going there for high school but I struggle in high school with organization and forgetfullness) Also, you could put him in a religious school if you're religious.(i went to a religious school in middle school) Another alternative would be homeschooling. Perhaps there would be a magnet school. Lastly, you could contact an Aspie school to see if they know anything about schools in your area. http://aspieschool.org/contact.htm
