About Pine Hill School - San Jose
Pine Hill School, part of Second Start Learning Disabilities Programs, is a private nonpublic certified school located at 1325 Bouret Dr in San Jose, California. It provides K-12 academic instruction and therapeutic support for students diagnosed with high-functioning autism and similar disabilities as well as those facing emotional or behavioral challenges who have not succeeded in other educational settings.
The school operates two programs on campus: the Newton Program, which emphasizes social skills development, individualized academics, and social-cognitive growth for students with average or above-average intelligence; and the Edison Program, which supports students with emotional or behavioral challenges through a team approach including teachers, behavior specialists, counselors, and speech and language therapists. Enrollment occurs through inquiries from families or school districts, with tours, student visits, and individualized placement decisions. The program aims for students to advance academically and transition back to comprehensive campuses.
Second Start was founded in 1974 and Pine Hill School opened in 1976. It is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. Students may be placed privately by parents or by their school district.
