"I had a student who was unable to tie his shoes and would become frustrated, scream and cry and throw them when he couldn't do it. Now he has learned to tie them all by himself, and if he gets stuck, he has learned to ask for help rather than scream and cry. We are so proud of him!"

Highly Specialized Program for Children With Autism

Summit Academy offers a leading-edge program specifically for children with autism and related developmental disabilities. Specially trained professionals deliver a highly structured approach that has been scientifically demonstrated to be effective in teaching a broad range of skills to children with autism. Typically, the classroom includes six students to a teacher, speech-language professional and instructional aide. Additional aide support often is available to ensure that students receive sufficient one-to-one and small group attention. The classroom team uses an approach (sometimes called applied behavior analysis) that provides a highly structured and systematic approach to instruction. For more information please contact us.
