简短评价Brief Review:
My friends daughter goes to willowwood. She is not overly happy, but feels its a better option than public school.

Willowwood is supposed to be a good private school for HFA kids. In the public system, alternative public schools sometimes offer a more flexible environment, and sometimes have smaller class sizes. My 10-yr-old is in a public alternative school, but Ilana is right, it is hard to get in (a lottery and then a waitlist if you don't get in). Is he going into grade 7? For grade 7 there is Quest Alternative or East Alternative, and probably others. Here is the link to all the K-8 alternative schools: https://www.tdsb.on.ca/Find-your/School ... ve-Schools . There is no specific HFA-related support for my kid at his school but I have been happy with the teachers' accommodations and understanding (although this varies according to the specific teacher).

Willowwood应该是一个适合高功能自闭症孩子的好私立学校。 在公共系统中，替代性公立学校有时提供更灵活的环境，有时候班级规模较小。 我10岁的孩子在公立替代学校，很难进入（如果你不进入，那么很多人会参加抽奖形式的入学程序，然后是候补等待名单）。 如果孩子会进入7年级， 对于7年级，有Quest Alternative或East Alternative，可能还有其他。 以下是所有K-8替代学校的链接：https：//www.tdsb.on.ca/Find-your/School/Alternative-Schools。 我的孩子在他的学校没有特定的高功能自闭症相关支持，但我对老师的安排和理解感到满意（尽管这根据具体的老师而有所不同）
