About Airline Drive Academy
Airline Drive Academy opened in 2020 as a Capital Region BOCES school for special education students in kindergarten through eighth grade. Placement here is recommended by each child's home district Committee on Special Education (CSE), based on the IEP.
Our classrooms combine direct, classroom-based instruction with resource room and consultant teacher models, and we run instructional programs including Pathways to Learning and Ready To Learn. We also teach students who take the New York State Alternate Assessment (NYSAA). Curriculum follows New York State learning standards, adapted through individualized instruction.
The building includes space for Northern Rivers, a New York State Office of Mental Health agency that operates a school-based health service on site for students with social, emotional and behavioral needs. Our administrators, teachers and support staff are trained in restorative practices, which we use in classrooms, hallways and on the playground as an alternative to punitive discipline. Capital Region BOCES also runs an Extended School Year program and itinerant related services for its special education students.
