Abstract
The future for a student with an autism spectrum disorder is often in the hands of the case conference committee. The decisions made by the case conference committee during the school years impacts the future life of each student. Academics are often given the highest priority followed by creating friendships that can last. There are students who graduate with honors, but are they prepared for life after high school? Perhaps decisions about goals for students with ASD should include more than graduating with a diploma. This article probes the issue of the push for academics without regard for the reality of life after high school.
