We are a high school for students with special needs. We serve students diagnosed with various disabilities including cognitive delays, autism spectrum disorders (ASD), multiple disabilities, and speech and language delays. Our school emphasizes transition into adult life and independence, we therefore maintain partnerships with various community businesses and organizations who help us to provide work experience for our older students.
