Temple Grandin School

New Boulder school will serve students who have Asperger's Syndrome - The Denver Post

A school serving grades 6-12 and specializing in students with Asperger's Syndrome and similar learning disorders will open next fall in Boulder County.

The independent Temple Grandin School, named for the Colorado State University professor, animal scientist and autism advocate, will feature a student-teacher ratio of 6-to-1 and combine social and educational supports with challenging academics.

The school will be located in Lafayette.
