Show Notes
Californias transitional kindergarten program, now fully launched, is making a significant impact on young children with special needs like autism. With speech therapy, behavior help, and social skills training, more kids with disabilities are enrolling. The structured setting offers daily practice in real interactions, leading to faster growth. Families see real progress, with children chatting more, befriending classmates, and curbing outbursts. However, rural districts face staffing shortages due to climbing special needs numbers. Schools are responding by reallocating staff and blending special classes into transitional kindergarten.
