Abstract
Adolescents with Asperger’s Syndrome (AS) face unique challenges in the educational setting. Specifically, adolescents with AS have difficulties with social skills and social communications. These students typically perform within the average to above average range in the classroom, however they may struggle to initiate and maintain appropriate relationships with peers. School administrators, teachers, and other school personnel may not fully understand AS and how to best support adolescents with AS. The purpose of this project is to provide educators with information and resources to help support the social needs of adolescents with AS. Participants with be presented with background information of AS and strategies to support students with AS.
