Library Item Name:

Autistic Student May Get Expelled from School 		   
Summary Statement:


Educating children with disabilities is a challenge almost every school across the country is facing.

But what happens when a child's disability starts to interfere with other students learning?

Forest Lyvers may look like every other 13 year old boy, but unlike most kids, he is challenged everyday. He has Aspergers.

In some ways he's a genius, but socially, he struggles.

It's a disability that keeps him from knowing right and wrong, particularly in the classroom.

Glenn Lyvers, Forest's father says, "He has been suspended many, many times."

But now he's facing another problem.

The school is considering expelling his son from school because of the inappropriate comments Forest repeats from some television shows.
