A Unique Model With Proven Results
APL has found a way to make all children feel like equal participants in the classroom experience by truly achieving "inclusion" from integrating children across the autism spectrum with their typically developing peers.
APL's Administration and Board of Directors are guided by four tenets to develop and sustain a high-quality program:
WHOLE CHILD LEARNING
Every student deserves access to high-quality academics, enrichment opportunities, social skills development and community integration that reflect their individual goals and strengths.
DATA-DRIVEN RESULTS
Our model is built on proven results so every student has an opportunity to succeed within a responsive, outcome-oriented environment.
BROAD COMMUNITY IMPACT
We want to reach as many deserving students as possible by influencing greater educational norms, creating an educational model for replication and driving outreach to the broader community.
INCLUSIVE ENVIRONMENT
We believe in the fundamental concept of inclusion and the value of creating a challenging and respectful environment for all student populations, including those across the autism spectrum and their typically developing peers.
Why Parents Love Us
To see our child happy, and with people that care about her, is worth more than anything and we have found that at APL.
- APL Parent
APL turned my child’s life around: academically, socially, and emotionally. And my life as well: I no longer dread the phone ringing. I know that my kids are in good hands, and that if ever any sort of problem does come up, I’ll be able to work with the school to make things better. What I say matters.
- APL Parent
APL provides us peace of mind for our family in a safe and supporting environment.
- APL Parent
When we started looking for the right school for our child to attend, we toured everywhere and came up dry. We found ourselves wishing there was a school where ABA therapy and academics were wholly combined in the same classroom. THEN we found APL and it felt like it had been created just for us. Dream come true!

APL has helped our son regain his self-confidence and improve his self-esteem!

The APL way is to care about your child in the best way possible while laying out a road map for progress developmentally and emotionally.
- APL Parent
The intrinsic blend of ABA with schooling that has taken my child from not sitting at a school desk, balled up in the corner in a novel, in public school to completing her work and even enjoying many of her academic classes. The value put on the unique traits of individuals and the enormous patience of the staff come in at the top as well.
