We serve students through a highly individualized classroom model that includes 1:1 or 1:2 student/staff ratios. Our classroom staff include special education teachers, general education teachers, behavior technicians and board-certified behavior analysts (BCBAs). 

This model allows us to address each student's specific needs, considering the wide range of functionality and uneven patterns of development typical of children with autism and other developmental disabilities. For example, we have students at or above grade level academically and students who need extra behavioral support to ready them for learning. Many of our students come to The Evolve School with challenging behaviors and we work with them to build alternative, appropriate replacement behaviors. 

We work with families to identify goals that will help students be successful in our program. Our teaching focuses on all academic areas and frequent field trips are planned around classroom learning.  We incorporate multiple group instruction opportunities, ensuring that our students can participate in observational learning in less restrictive settings, and engage in meaningful social activities.
