Founded in 2003, The Springstone School, a Nonpublic School
(NPS), serves students with Executive Function challenges that
affect their ability to organize and prioritize information and to
make meaningful social connections. We have both a middle school
program (grades 6-8) and a high school program (grades 9-12).
We believe our students will develop strategies for use in
academic and social settings if they are part of a community that
understands, accepts, and challenges them.Executive Function
challenges are defined by processing deficits that negatively
impact consistent academic production and favorable social
outcomes.
Springstone's Program integrates pragmatic language,
occupational therapy, organizational skills and life skills in the
academic classroom as well as in activities that take place out in
the community. This program aims to strengthen skills by
emphasizing process to improve production. Springstone students
learn organizational and planning skills within the context of a
rigorous middle school and high school curriculum that follows the
framework of the California Common Core Standards. Small,
self-contained, structured classrooms (a maximum of eight students
per class) allow for individualized instruction, collaboration,
discussion and conversation within multiple modalities. All of our
graduates earn a high school diploma to take them to any community
or city college program as well as vocational programs.
