Tony Attwood - Author of The Complete Guide to Asperger's Syndrome - The Oasis Guide to Asperger Syndrome. Advice, Support, Insights, and Inspiration
This book is a must have. Patty and Barb really know what they are doing. They have both given me advice over the years and I appreciate all of the help that they have given me. Barb helped me with a particular problem in middle school. It didn't work out. The PE teacher stated that he knew more about my son than Barb or I did. What a shame that he wasted such precious time fighting me instead of helping my son. Bullies come in all sizes. The one's that have power are more dangerous than the ones that have fists.

Graduation in the United States
Nationwide, 73.4 percent of all public school students graduated from high school with a regular diploma in the class of 2009, marking the second
straight year of gains following a period of modest declines. A gap of 35 percentage points separates the best-performing and worst-performing states.
The national leaders—Iowa, Minnesota, New Jersey, North Dakota, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin—each graduate at least 80 percent of their students.
By contrast, the graduation rate falls below 60 percent in the District of Columbia, Nevada, and New Mexico.
