Special Education

I am a mother looking to move to Tuscaloosa so my daughter can have more resources ( Level 3 autism non verbal). Which elementary schools are the best?

Be sure to look into Arts ‘n Autism (artsnautism.org). Really good people doing really cool stuff, and I’m sure they could give you some advice on this.

The only thing about Arts’n Autism, is their teachers are not certified early childhood special education teachers. So, just be aware. Most don’t have degrees and have child care backgrounds.

I’m not saying they are bad by any means. They just don’t have the professional background or development an Early Childhood Special Education teacher would.

Also, I’d look strongly at Northport Elementary. If you are looking for a place with additional resources, look at Two Roads Elementary.
