Well, basically, my school speaks for itself with it's name "A.S.P.I.E...heh. We follow the regents cirriculum of New York State, and we offer other things like Speech, and Social Skills.

We've had a reporter from the NY Times, Amy Harmon, come to out school, and do a report. You can look for it at www.nytimes.com :)

Oh, and feel free to email or IM me. All of that stuff is in my profile :)

Welcome to WP.

I'm interested in this school you talk about.. i've never heard of one before.

Is it just like a public school with those extra classes? Do you find it easire to relate to other aspies you don't know?

It's actually a private school affiliated with a public school. It's kind of confusing..heh. Our website is www.indieprograms.org if you want to check it out.

I do find it easier to relate with other aspies, because they are going through the same stuff I am, and I can relate to them.
