Yeah, I mean, we were so blessed.

He initially ended up at a public school for kindergarten, and his teacher happened to have a son on the spectrum.

And he had been through their developmental preschool, again, getting the services early.

So he was already kind of integrated into the program at the school.

um unfortunately he wasn't getting enough services in terms of like they get like 20 minutes of speech once a week if you're lucky it's very little um and because of the other moms in the autism community they were like hey do you know about esa no tell me about that that kind of thing um We were able to get him into a more specialized school where all of his therapies that he wasn't getting in the public school, OTPT, that wasn't being offered at the public school, was offered at the school.

And that really, between his kindergarten teacher in the public school working with him because she understood what it was like having a kid on the spectrum and And him getting into this more specialized program was like a huge opportunity for him.
