School administrators play a key role in creating a mind-set within their school district, region, or school as to how school personnel approach various challenges they may encounter when working with students and families. In many instances, a school administrator can provide certain accommodations for students with disabilities, as well as guide decisions regarding how teachers address behavioral challenges.
The purpose of this book is to provide school administrators with useful and practical suggestions and strategies that can increase student achievement, engagement, positive behavior, and social skills for high-functioning students on the spectrum (HF-ASD); help reduce educator stress and frustration; and increase positive interactions between families and school personnel so that the school day is more successful for all parties.

Placement
The majority of students with HF-ASD attend general education classes. Due to their excellent long-term rote memory skills and their tendency to excel in specific areas of academics, many functionwell in several aspects of school. In addition, because students with HF-ASD are usually of average to above-average intelligence, most benefit from attending classes with content that is on or above their grade level. For example, if the student has a relative strength in math or reading, her participation in class not only strengthens her math skills but may also help to build herself-esteem (Barnhill, 2004). However, these skills are not sufficient. Since social-communication challenges are one of the core deficits of students with ASD, these students need to learn to interact with typically developing peers. This is consistent with The Individuals With Disabilities Education Act (IDEA; 2004), which stipulates that to the maximum extent appropriate, children with disabilities should be educated with children without disabilities. However, as for all students with special needs, placement decisions should be made by a team, including family members, based on individual student strengths and needs.
