Haynes Education Center is a special education facility that offers a highly individualized program.
The school accommodates elementary and secondary level students not able to attend regular or special education classes in local school districts.
Our program serves both students from our residential program as well as those from the local community.
We provide both clinical services during the day and an after school day treatment program to address each students individual needs.
Haynes Education Center currently serves children Kindergarten to 12th graders.
The younger students and the older students that need special attention are in self contained classrooms where they spend their day with the same teacher and aide.
The Middle and High School students rotate classes between several teachers, making their school experience more like what they will face when they transition to the public school.
