How do I deal with my Asperger's Syndrome in school?

Would an option be to talk to your teachers directly, rather than going through the counselor? Or maybe your parents could? You can tell them what you just told us- "I have a condition where it makes me a little slow to understand things, but I'm not stupid and I don't want to be put in special education classes. I just thought you should know." That way at least your teachers will know that you aren't stupid or lazy, but that you have a learning disability that makes you have to work just a little harder than everyone else. I think they'd understand and probably cut you a bit of a break.

Learning support is a service that can be provided in a regular classroom, so you should not have to worry about being separated from your friends. You may want to talk to your parents or the school counselor about what kinds of accommodations they can give you for assignments, homework, and testing. There are quite a few things that can be put in place to help you finish out the year. You do not mention your post-high school plans, but if you expect to continue your education, your IEP can follow you to college or technical school so you can carry on your educational success. There is nothing very "special" about asking for help. But your disability of Asperger's does give you a legitimate "reason" for doing so. Put on your thinking cap and work out a plan for your time at school, and maybe even as you go out into the working world. There is a lot of support for you, if you are brave enough to ask for it. Blessings!

My step-brother has Asperger's. My step-mom talked to his teachers. Yes, he does have a few special classes, but for the most part, he interacts with the other students. I think it would be very beneficial for you if you parents talked to someone at the school.

well.my child is in 4th grade and he has , these special classes ,he doesnt go with these mentally challenged kids. ,he is in regular classes like the others kids ,but when there is any subject too hard for him he,gets pulls from the class and take him to another class where are just a few kids, like 4 or 7 kids,instead 20 kids or more. in this class these teachers they have time for them ,they go over and over with them. they sit with each one of them ,there are more than 1 teacher, usually there are about 3 tecahers for these little group of children. but these is not simple to get in these classes,they have to evaluate how slow you are ,depends on the results ,they go by hours, my child takes 1hours for reading 45 mins for maths, etc .

I dont know what exactly Asperger's Syndrome is, but from your detailed explaination I think what you should do is just sleep through your classes and dont do your homework. Thats what i do and everyone says im super special, I even have my own private bus yea!
