SAS = school of advanced study

cc6 You should have him identified as being "2e" a.k.a.twice exceptional (gifted + LD, in this case ASD), so that he can have an individualized education plan (IEP). It helps the teachers to know more fully what they're dealing with, and also certain diagnoses may come with additional funding that can be applied to his IEP provisions.

Good luck (and welcome smile )
