              Quince Orchard HS has just added an Aspergers Program this year (to divide up the program that Walter Johnson HS has). But, it does not have the resources, the know-how, or the attitude to implement it the way it is supposed to be implemented. Communication and openness are poor, and there is not much embracing of differences in students or learning styles. Emotional health is not addressed at all, nor is organization, executive functioning, or advocacy.
