Dear Raquel,
As I'm sure you know, children and teens with severe forms of Pervasive Developmental Disorder require educational environments that are designed to address their behavioral difficulties. They require levels of staffing that provide for one-to-one coverage when needed, and that is likely needed in your situation. Your question is one which needs to be tackled by the administrators of the program, because knowledge of the total therapeutic milieu is required in order to offer options.
