Autism Academy for Advancement of Children with Autism is a non-public school which is committed to helping children reach their highest potential.

It is our goal to assist students to increase academic focus and build upon strengths while minimizing challenges.

We at AACA understand that research in the area of Autism Spectrum Disorders is ongoing and hope that we will have answers soon.

However; while we wait for those answers, as parents and educators our primary focus must be on what can be done now to assist this rapidly increasing population of students to achieve academic and social success.

Education, treatment and remediation at The Academy is not relegated to a single approach or recipe, but rather one that is fluid and tailor made for each individual student.

In the end, it is each student achieving his or her best potentiality that is most important.
