Great Strides School Enrollment
We pride ourselves on being able to provide individual instruction in small group settings so that we may best meet the needs of our students. Due to our commitment to maintaining small classroom sizes, our school is only able to accept a limited number of new students each year. Upon enrollment in Great Strides School, your child will be assessed using one of a variety of available developmental and academic assessments chosen by a BCBA. Your child’s Student Specialized Learning Plan will then be developed using the results of these assessments as well as information obtained through parent interviews and staff observations.

Notice to parents enrolling students under the FES-UA scholarship: Please note that our school accommodates students with disabilities in accordance with federal and local law. However, your child may not receive the types of accommodations or related services that your child may be entitled to receive at a public school as public schools have different obligations under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). The IDEA does not apply to private schools.
