Overview
Great Circle provides nationally accredited education services for students whose success in a traditional setting requires intensive behavioral, therapeutic or social skills interventions.
Program Details
Every child and teenager deserves to develop in a safe, supportive environment that fosters lifelong learning.
Our educational services provide individualized support for children with severe emotional or behavioral challenges, communication disorders, cognitive delays or an Autism Spectrum Disorder diagnosis. All from our staff of caring teachers who are certified in Special Education and General Education, as well teacher’s assistants and licensed clinical therapists.
Individualized plans are designed and maintained to help students meet their educational and psychosocial goals, ensuring short-term progress and lifelong resiliency. Students are able to learn in an environment that includes a low staff-to-student ratio, individualized evidence-based instructional practices, an accredited curriculum, and intensive therapeutic services.
