Autism

Milwaukee Public Schools proudly provides a variety of learning environments for our students on the autism spectrum. MPS recognizes best practices in working with neurological differences and provides support in social/communication, rigidity, sensory, and other individual factors.

MPS also provides autism-specific support for teachers working with students on the spectrum to help provide a best-practice education. This support encourages inclusive practices that emphasize students' strengths and unique approaches to the learning community.

If you have any concerns regarding your child’s needs in regard to autism spectrum disorder, please contact your child's special education teacher.
