Academy for Precision Learning (APL) is an inclusive K-12 school serving students across the autisum spectrum with their typically developing peers in an academically challenging and socially vibriant enviroment. The mission of APL is to transform childrens` lives through small daily moments that, taken together, create an unrivaled educational experience that is rigorous and demanding, yet joyful and rewarding.
Every "small moment" is achieved through intensive and exhaustive planning and preparation by our professional staff. All children are welcomed as equal participants in the classroom and encouraged as members of their peer group. Then, teachers engage students in lessons that are either created from scratch or adapted from a curriculum to be both accessible and meaningful. Finally, teachers measure progress in an individualized manner so that every student`s performance is given worthwhile context in their overall progress as a learner. In this way, students with autism, ADHD, anxiety, learning disabilities, students who are highly achieving, and students with no diagnosis at all can participate together in their home classroom. This is how we define and enact inclusion in our school not after the fact, but instead by creating it from the ground up, as classrooms and lessons are being developed in the first place.
Cost depends on grade level tuition and clinical services, if any, provided. Discount for more than one student in same family.

School Notes
Founded in 2007, APL is an inclusive K-12 school serving
students across the autism spectrum along with their typically
developing peers in an inclusive, academically challenging and
socially vibrant environment. All children are welcomed
as equal participants in the classroom and encouraged as members of
their peer group. Teachers engage students in lessons that
are either created from scratch or adapted from a curriculum to be
both accessible and meaningful. Finally, teachers measure progress
in an individualized manner so that every student`s performance is
given worthwhile context in their overall progress as a learner. In
this way, students with autism, ADHD, anxiety, learning
differences, students who are highly achieving, and students with
no diagnosis at all can participate together in their home
classroom. This is how we define and enact inclusion in our
school - by creating it from the ground up, as classrooms
and lessons are being developed. In order to best succeed in their
classroom, some students with autism may require additional
services from our embedded Roots Clinic`s Applied
Behavior Analysis therapy (ABA) . ABA therapy has
been demonstrated in research as the primary effective
treatment for autism, and can also be successfully used to
support individuals with other diagnoses or needs. To ensure a
high quality and clinically sound service package for every student
in need of our services, our professional team includes staff
certified and licensed across a range of organizations regulating
our practice. Our services include scaffolding support and training
for teachers based on observational assessment of the classroom. It
also includes individualized programming, incorporating rigorous
assessment tools, ongoing treatment planning, and monitoring for
students who receive ABA services through The ROOTS Clinic. The
common thread across our services is that they are provided in
the school environment.
