Serving children from infancy through age six, the school specializes in supporting those with diverse learning profiles, including language-based learning disabilities and twice-exceptional students.

Additionally, Sensory Education enhances cognitive skills through hands-on exploration of physical properties, while Practical Life activities empower children with essential everyday skills that promote independence and confidence.
