Aldar Academy was established in 1975 as a private, non-profit, non-public school. We specialize in meeting the needs of handicapped students with severe learning, emotional and /behavioral problems. Aldar Academy provides individualized services as identified in the IEP (Individual Educational Program). Aldar Academy serves the needs of students ages 4-22, grades K-12. Aldar is certified by the California State Department of Education.
