What Our Schools Provide

ALDS schools are unique learning environments in which students have the opportunity to shine. Our schools foster a strong sense of community belonging, where students are valued for their individual learning styles and parents are active collaborators in their educational journey. Thanks to dedicated, highly trained educators and instructional approaches that are grounded in research, neurodiverse learners uncover the strategies and tools that align with how they learn best. We teach bright, talented, and creative students who learn differently to believe in themselves, helping them to build confidence and unleash their true potential. Graduates of ALDS schools emerge as successful self-advocates, prepared for the next chapter of their lives and equipped with the skills needed to thrive in our ever-evolving world.

Expert Faculty

ALDS schools are committed to providing their faculty with research-based training, ensuring all teachers have a deep understanding of their students' varying needs as well as the cutting-edge instructional approaches to meet those needs.

Personalized Support

At ALDS schools, students benefit from personalized instruction and targeted interventions that meet them where they are. Grounded in the Science of Reading, our schools ensure students receive the best research has to offer, empowering them to excel and thrive.

Unleashed Potential

We know that each student has their own unique gifts and talents. ALDS schools help students identify and embrace these talents in ways they never dreamed possible. In doing so, we foster an environment in which students not only excel academically, but discover their true potential.
