Welcome to Academy Schools

When a typical classroom can’t support your student’s needs, Academy Schools offers a community and comprehensive learning experience rooted in the belief that learning isn’t one-size-fits-all. 

Our school curriculum and culture are designed to support and empower neurodivergent students. We are proud to serve a diverse range of learning profiles, including:

  • Autism spectrum disorder (ASD)
  • Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)
  • Sensory processing challenges
  • Obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD)
  • Anxiety & emotional needs
  • School trauma & school refusal
  • LGBTQ2SA students
  • Nonpublic agency (NPA) students

Learning at Academy Schools

Adaptive learning models, smaller classroom sizes, and a student-centered approach provide students with the opportunity to experience a holistic school setting. Our school curriculum and culture are rooted in the belief that each child deserves an accessible education that supports and uplifts their individuality.

Students are taught practical and transferrable skills for applications in the rest of their lives, such as executive functioning. Students are also encouraged to regulate as needed throughout the day. We welcome personal ABA therapists and are proud to partner with ABA companies.

Students learn in classroom settings, physically-engaging activities, and monthly field trips. This multifaceted curriculum caters to many different learning styles and the chance to learn traditional academics and practice navigating new social circumstances.
