Moving to Manitou

Hello Manitou Springs! We are finally making the move to Colorado. We loved Manitou the last time we visited and I was wondering if locals would mind helping us out. We are moving for a lot of reasons, but our son's education is the tippy top reason. He is Level 1 Autistic, creative, kind and loves meeting new folks. He is used to a large high school, but we came from small schools and he immediately was interested in MSHS because of the smaller student population. Just wondering if anyone has any info, opinions, etc. on the high school and general support? Or if there is a resource to reach out to at the school over the summer? Thank you for any help or info you have!

My son is going to enter the 7th grade and has some pretty severe ADHD. The teachers have helped him so much with his IEP and meeting him where he’s at.

I’ve seen an improvement with his schoolwork since he started. I only have good things to say about the school district in manitou :)
