for a cure.
to take care of yourself,
how to express yourself,
or just get some type
of language out of you,
where you could be able
to voice for yourself.
These are the things that we
really need to work with.
[Giggling]
Ready?
Read.
"The."
All right, high-ten!
Excellent!
You did that
by yourself, too.
Do you want something
for that?
[Vocalizing]
I didn't understand that.
Do you want something for that?
-Yes.
-You have to say it louder.
[Vocalizing]
If you don't speak louder,
nobody's going to ever
give you what you want.
So, do you want something?
-Yes.
-Yes!
-Yes!
-Okay, what do you want?
Cookie.

[Sand rattling]
I've been teaching
for over 20 years.
[Ding]
I had several kids
graduate before.
[Ding]
But this time it's different
because my entire class
is graduating.
[Sand rattling]
So, we're going to talk
about transition.
We're going to have a discussion
about what happens
with our students
once they leave here,
and particularly since
your entire class
is graduating.
One of the biggest problems
that we have
for our students
with autism is,

post-high school.
So...
they have like a day
recreational program
where the kids just come
and do activities,
and then they have
a work program.
But it's not anything
that I would consider, you know,
a standard, traditional job.
Do they have
any live-in programs?
Oh, yeah, uh...
It's very private.
And you've got to pay.
And most of our kids
wouldn't be able to pay.
-Oh, it's private.
-Yeah.

you're no longer a student,
they call you a "consumer."
So they allow the consumer
