This story is an example where designing schools for autistic and other neurodiverse folks would make them better for everyone.

My class was indefinitely delayed for photos. But no teaching b/c 2/3 of class was getting photos with another teacher. Then I have to take all students to line up in lobby that has terrible acoustics with dozens of 8th graders. A sensory disaster for anyone! Painful for me. 2/3

I have only been oncen w/ my spouse when last in Chi. We had a blast. It was incredible seeing some of the best in the world up close. Sophia Smith & Mal Swanson scored that match. DiBernardo was impressive as she does so much that doesn't show up on TV. Many players chatted & signed post-game.
