Autism Schools & Special Education in Salinas

Monterey County SELPA maintains the list of approved nonpublic schools that districts can actually place students in - and that list, not a Google search, is where a Salinas family should start. California offers no voucher and no ESA, so a district-funded placement through the IEP is the only public route to a specialized school.
