Charter School Threatens Autism Program


BROOKLYN, N.Y. -- A highly successful program for kids with autism could be destroyed if the city moves a charter school into a Carroll Gardens elementary school, parents and teachers are charging.
Department of Education plans call for Brooklyn Prospect Charter School to move into 14 portable classrooms at Public School 32 on Hoyt St. for the next school year.
The move would displace classrooms and therapy rooms at PS32 used by autistic kids - and parents and teachers say the impact on students would be severe.
