Autism in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has been studied comprehensively with a lot of new information being found out about its history, background and occurrence in Saudi Arabia. This study is prepared with the purpose of examining the use of special education methods such as the use of email and other technological advances and methods for communication with autism by parents and teachers in Saudi Arabia. The study here employs empirical evidence to support its findings and takes a three-question approach which focuses on the following questions; 1.) What are the perceptions of e-mail as a method of communication with parents? 2.) What are the relationships among gender, age, teaching experience, frequency of e-mail use, administrator's e-mail use, classroom e-mail access, grade level/subject taught, school socioeconomic level and teacher perceptions of e-mail as a method of communication with parents? 3.) What are the benefits and barriers to using e-mail to communicate with parents? This study also compiles a list of suggestions and recommendations arising from the research which may be used to improve or address issues regarding parent-school partnership in the management of children with ASD. The study aims to prove the significance of the communication quality between the teachers and parents and the fundamental and functional impacts that it has on general success of children with ASD inside and outside school. The findings of the research have an important influence on the future of school-parent collaboration, which is becoming increasingly popular because of the student-centered approach embraced by most learning institutions today. Considering the special attention that children with ASD require for their continued development and learning process, the revelations about the teachers' perception of e-mail communication and the general use of internet communication could be instrumental in informing legislation of policies at school and national levels as a way of improving the level of education for these children in Saudi Arabia.
