[NABS-L] Staying in school until 21

[Vejas Vasiliauskas]

Hi Armando,
I have heard of this before. I'm not really sure how it works or what kind of disability a person has to have to be able to stay at school until 21. A girl at my high school did this. She was autistic but still verbal, and I believe they had a life skills program there.
My concern for you would be that you'd run out of classes to take long before 21.
Perhaps your grandpa is worried about the money that is required for going to college? If so, these are valid concerns. But there are plenty of scholarships you can apply for, and many schools give generous financial aid packages.
