Gina,
He may have Aspergers, but he definitely appears to be gifted. You should have him tested for that. Often kids who are gifted don't do well in regular ed classes because they are bored to tears. So he can have Aspergers and be gifted, that would be a dual disability. With his scores I would definitely look into it.

The other thing is a couple of his scores are low with the high level
of the other scores. So I would definately also look at the fact that
its very much possible that he is gifted, and learning disabled. Or
aspergers.

I would also look into having him, tested for the gifted area, and learning
disabilities too. And how about sensory issues, have you checked that
out too.

And how are his social skills? DOes he look people in the eyes? Can
he relate to what people say, or does he literally take what they
say and its what they mean.
