All states and school districts are probably different. Here in Kalifornia, all school districts are required by law to provide an aid to autistic students, but very few schools make it clear to parents. Even when you ask, they do all they can to tell you that it is not their duty nor law to do so, no doubt to save money on hiring additional school dsitrict employees. Even when they do provide an aid, most aids are not trained to deal with autistic behavior and learn as they go.
