🚨 This Is Bigger Than Parkside! 🚨
Rockford’s ASD students gain invaluable real-world experiences through Parkside’s unique walkability. Thanks to its downtown location, students can engage with the community at places like Rocky’s, Rockford Bowling, and more—building life skills that simply won’t be possible at Meadow Ridge.
💡 But this isn’t just about ASD students—this impacts ALL students. Neurodiversity in schools teaches empathy, patience, and emotional intelligence, helping children learn how to care for others in an increasingly harsh world. Removing these opportunities is a loss for everyone.
