The Springstone School is a nonpublic school that serves students in grades 6 through 12, with various neurodivergent disabilities, but focused on Autism and Executive Functioning challenges. Although our students have social and organizational challenges, they do not have unsafe or aggressive behaviors. We have small class sizes of 8-10 students per cohort, per grade level. This allows for meaningful connections between teacher and pupils.
