In the state of Florida (and many other states), two personal fitness credits/courses are required for graduation of high school. One required course is Personal Fitness, which is both in the classroom teaching about health and out of the classroom doing physical activity. The other credit can come from a variety of courses including Volleyball, Basketball, Team Sports (a mix of all of them), or even Weightlifting. This all is a part of the government trying to cut down on obesity of teens in America and specifically Florida, by developing healthy and informed individuals.

1 :
its not based on how many children you have
2 :
nope only with the cost and location of your home. if you have no kids, you still pay.
3 :
Children are dependants. The more dependants, the more deductions to your taxable income.
4 :
No. Public (state) schools are funded primarily through ad-valorem real property taxes in the US. The tax is based solely upon the value of the real property, nothing else.
5 :
There is not a "school tax" since school is free for everyone, but to pay for it, they charge you income tax (based on income) and property taxes (based on house value) Sounds free to me :<

This is entirely dependent on what method of therapy or therapies you prescribe to (ie. ABA, Floortime, SonRise, etc).
2 :
I have to agree that it's subjective as to which is the "best" since there are so many types and you might or might not agree with the fundimentals of a particular method. I recommend you collect info from as many sources as possible and look through them. If something doesn't feel right to you then I advise you go with your gut instincts. Just keep in mind that the earlier the intervention, the better. Also, depending on where on the spectrum the child is (ie, how mild-severe his autism is) will affect the outcome. With a preschool aged child, I believe it's important to have a home program that works with the school program as closely as possible or at least doesn't conflict with it. Good Luck and God Bless

There's a great school in Baltimore. It's Kennedy Krieger Institute's LEAP program. They use ABA (applied behavioral analysis) and TEACCH. They also offer services with a music therapist, art therapist, occupational therapist, speech therapist, aquatics instructor, physical education instructor. Speech and occupational therapy usually happens both individually and as a group. The kids have music, art, computers, PE, swim, and library at least once a week all year round (it's an extended school year program). Their pool is an indoor therapy pool. The school goes from ages 5-21 and has close to a 1:1 ratio of staff to students. They also have an awesome sensory room, complete with soothing sounds, columns of bubbles, fiber optic lights, etc. It's a great program
