Y.A.L.E. School Philadelphia

At Achieve Academy of Philadelphia's East Campus, we support students in grades 6 through 12 who are referred by the School District of Philadelphia for behavioral challenges. Staff work with students and families on goals for attendance, conduct and coursework in a structured school setting. Our transitional program combines academic instruction with support for social behavior and emotional wellness. The goal is to help students return to their home schools, and our team continues check-ins after that return. The East Campus is at 4224 North Front Street.

We work with children who are deaf or hard of hearing and their families from birth through young adulthood. Our Philadelphia programs include early intervention, preschool, school-age support, virtual services, and family coaching. We help babies and toddlers build listening and spoken-language skills at home, at our site, or through teleservices. In preschool, children learn alongside peers with typical hearing, and families can join parent groups, field trips, and classroom observations. Our teachers of the deaf support students in mainstream public, charter, and private schools across Southeastern Pennsylvania. On Saint Joseph’s University’s Hawk Hill campus, we equip classrooms for children’s hearing needs and pair sound-field amplification with personal hearing technology. Families can also reach our outpatient speech clinic for individualized listening, speech, language, and communication therapy.
