School Notes

  • The Talk School, formerly the Magnolia School, is the nation's most progressive center for the education of children with speech/language disorders who may also have autism and other disorders.
  • As teachers, therapists and researchers we are at the forefront of a new, more accurate and person-centered understanding of autism - one that presents autism as a sensory-based movement disorder profoundly affecting language, social interaction and praxis. Talk School's mission is to serve a unique and worthy community - students with severe speech and language differences who possess the skills to embark on the journey of communication and literacy development.
  • Our model provides intensive, integrated therapeutic interventions within a comprehensive, supportive academic environment.
  • Talk School offers a full-day, intensive, fully-integrated therapeutic and academic day school for children with severe speech and language disorders, autism and other differences.
  • Talk School's students are children, 5 to 21 years of age . Diagnoses include autism spectrum disorder and/or significant speech/language disorders.
  • Each class consists of a full-time:speech-language pathologist, an occupational therapist and a special education teacher and a teaching assistant.
  • Our small class sizes will maximize the gains in all areas of language and academics.
