Ethan's education battle

Ethan has autism and is attending public school in Westerly, RI.  They want to send him out of disctrict due to some behavior issues.  He loves his school, current friends and teachers and doesn't want to leave.  The school sysytem doesn't want to provide him with the support he needs.  We, the parents, need assistance with paying for an advocate & lawyer.  The fees can be substantial, but we have to do everything we can to help our child.  He doesn't belong in the schools they are trying to send him to; they will do more harm to him than good.  Academics will not be a major part of his education, and he will fall behind. He needs to stay where he is and he needs ABA support.  Thank you.
