There is a parent support group for twice exceptional children in Cincinnati

created the group three years ago. Members of the group have experience with
school districts in the area. The family is welcome to contact Carol Case at

Everyone:

A parent moving to southwest Ohio asked me about various local districts'
(mandated) services, IEPs and so forth for a gifted child with
high-functioning autism. The child is in elementary school. The family also
has other children in gifted programs in the family's current state,
California, so service to those children also plays into the decision as to
where to move and what to expect (or not) with whatever offerings might be
available locally in Ohio.

If you have had any experience with any school system's handling of gifted
children with high-functioning autism, or if you have any comments,
observations or recommendations for the family, please post your message
here on Ohiogift. Thanks.

Best wishes,
