Avalon Academy
The Avalon Academy is a school dedicated to providing exceptional educational services to children with movement disorders such as cerebral palsy. In our highly-skilled and nurturing environment, we integrate communication, academic and motor-skill development. Our individualized, interdisciplinary, and family-focused approach encompasses all areas of challenge for our students. This enables our children to fulfill their maximum personal potential, so that they thrive in both school and society.
At Avalon, we strive to be a second home for you and your child. We have adapted the environment of Avalon with our students and clients in mind, rather than expecting them to adapt to our environment. Avalon’s team is made up of phenomenal physical therapists, speech-language pathologists, special education teachers, orientation and mobility specialists, vision teachers, occupational therapists, and a tireless team of instructional assistants who are in constant collaboration with one another. The team is committed to a standard of excellence that is founded in evidence based practice, compassion, and dignity for everyone that we serve.
This vision became reality in January 2005 when Avalon first opened its doors. Avalon now serves K-12
Core Program: The Avalon Academy is a full-time educational option. The school year begins in September and ends in June. The school day runs from 9AM to 3PM, Monday through Friday.
Summer Program: The program takes place Monday through Friday for 6 weeks (July – August). It follows a similar format to the core program but with additional recreational-movement activities. Special events take place frequently, such as dance workshops, visits from the local zoo, swimming parties, etc. Typically developing siblings can attend periodically, providing an excellent opportunity for integration.
