Best Special Needs Schools in Windsor, Connecticut (2026)

Computers, mobile devices, interactive whiteboards and alternative or augmentative communication devices form part of instruction at River Street School in Windsor. Our clinical team works with instructional staff every day and consults with families. Supervisors certified through the Behavior Analyst Certification Board provide daily oversight and staff training, connecting those instructional tools with the people supporting students. Our program serves neurodivergent students and students on the autism spectrum ages 3 to 22. We use applied behavior analysis to plan academic, behavioral and daily living skill instruction around each student's needs. Teens and young adults ages 14 to 22 can take part in transition programming. Academic learning, life skills and transition work support participation and independence. Safety-Care training helps staff prevent behavioral challenges, respond early and manage situations safely. Our Windsor school belongs to the wider River Street network, which also runs separate autism and early learning programs in Bloomfield.
