Since 2006, teaching children with autism and related disabilities including intellectual disabilities, hearing/visually impaired, behavioral difficulties, language delays, traumatic brain injuries, and learning disabilities.
When a child has special needs, patience and knowledge of the latest teaching techniques are a priority. Teachers are the cornerstone of children’s development. A solid teacher offers inspiration and encouragement so that students achieve success inside and outside the classroom. When it comes to children with special needs, teachers must possess characteristics that help them deal with physical and cognitive disorders.
We do a “Summer Intensive Program” to reduce the likelihood of regression of skills and work on socialization and fun. Recreation may sound like it’s just “fun and games,” but for most kids with autism, fun and games are more challenging than (and at least as important as) academics.
We are John M. McKay Scholarship and Gardiner Scholarship Program Approved.
Florida’s John M. McKay Scholarships for Students with Disabilities Program is the nation’s first school voucher program for students with special needs.
The Gardiner Scholarship Program is a scholarship program that can be used to purchase specialized services such as speech or occupational therapy for approved students.
