Autism Program

As a private special education school located in both Union and Montclair NJ, we serve students on the autism spectrum living primarily in Bergen, Essex, Hudson, Middlesex, Morris, Passaic, Somerset, and Union counties whose needs cannot be met in their sending school district. Our unique approach to educating students with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), is state-renowned. We look to maximize their academic skills, functional communication, as well as life skills.
