Just to make sure the facts are straight, APL is a school that serves for BOTH neurotypical kids AND kids on the autism spectrum equally. It is NOT "mostly kids with autism" as another reviewer stated. Neurotypical kids thrive at APL! We have two of them. :)

I cannot speak highly enough about this amazing school. It's the only school of its kind. It's mostly for autistic/spectrum children but serves "typical" children as well (usually siblings of the spectrum students)...but, we have been through a lot of schools public and private and while there have been some glimmers of goodness and some good educators, for the most part I felt that they were doing whatever they could to just quiet our son -- appease our son -- encourage our son to "take a break" out of the classroom so that he wasn't disruptive to others. At APL, I can tell they actually care about our son's success and praise him for the good things he does while encouraging him to do better in areas he is weaker. Truly an amazing experience with APL thus far. If you're reading this review and you have a child on the spectrum, I urge you to consider APL....and consider making a donation to this wonderful school!
