About Oak Hill School of New York

Oak Hill School is a private therapeutic day school for students in grades K through 8 whose emotional or behavioral challenges keep them from being successful in other schools. As one of the smallest specialized therapeutic programs in New York State, we are able to give every child the individualized attention they need to grow.

Our highly committed staff delivers a non-traditional program that draws on nature and the outdoors, cooking, art, technology, and physical education to build self-esteem and support learning across the core curriculum. In addition to being certified in special education, our teachers and teaching assistants are trained in Therapeutic Crisis Intervention for Schools (TCIS). We have six classrooms, each made up of six students, one teacher, and one teaching assistant.

Set on nine wooded acres complete with hiking trails, a playground, and a pond, our campus gives students room to learn and play outdoors. Our program is fully aligned with New York State and Common Core Learning Standards, and we provide related services including occupational therapy, physical therapy, and speech, along with individual and group counseling. A six-week summer program is available for all enrolled students.

Robert Williams School is a Nassau BOCES middle school program providing an academic setting with a multidisciplinary team for students with learning, behavioral, emotional, and developmental disabilities. Instruction is aligned to New York State standards and includes opportunities toward a Regents diploma or other state-approved diplomas, along with CDOS-aligned work-based learning where appropriate. School-wide PBIS and explicit pro-social skill instruction are integrated to support social-emotional growth and independence. Key programs include academics aligned to New York State standards tailored to students' cognitive levels and learning styles. The school offers pathways toward a NYS Regents diploma or other approved diplomas with CDOS-related instructional and work-based learning opportunities. The Therapeutic Learning Collaborative (TLC) provides two specialized programs: the Intensive Support Program (ISP) offering counseling partnership with North Shore Child & Family Guidance Center for individual, group, family counseling and psychiatric care; and the Transitional Support Program (TSP) supporting transition to less restrictive settings with counseling from BOCES psychologists, social workers, and guidance counselors. Guidance services include transitional planning beginning at age 14 and assistance with working papers. Placement is through the home district's Committee on Special Education (CSE) as part of the student's IEP process.
