Why Choose Thrive Academy?

Thrive Academy is changing the way we think about education for students with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). While many other schools focus solely on academics, Thrive Academy takes a bold, comprehensive approach, recognizing that for students with ASD, learning success is deeply intertwined with behavioral support, sensory integration, social development, and emotional wellness.

Thrive Academy Admissions Requirements:

  • Students with an Autism diagnosis.
  • Students must demonstrate independence in eating and basic toileting skills.
  • Students in grades K-12+
  • Ability to work in a vocational environment with supervision (with appropriate training and coaching)

And parents will meet with a member of our administration to discuss further the details of Thrive Academy’s purpose and goals for our students.
