ResponsiveEd is proud to offer unique educational options that reflect the diverse interests, goals, and learning styles of every student we serve. One of these options is Foundation Schools for Autism, our tuition-free public charter schools providing critical early intervention to students on the Autism Spectrum in grades Early Childhood Special Education (ECSE) through first grade.
With a highly structured and nurturing environment, Foundation School for Autism students learn essential communication and academic skills, the foundation for lifelong learning. The school’s focus on early intervention provides each student with the tools they need to grow and succeed both in and out of the classroom.
What Makes the Foundation School for Autism Unique?
Early Intervention Focus
Foundation School for Autism is dedicated to early childhood education, understanding that the earlier support begins, the greater the impact. Every student receives a customized learning plan designed to support growth in key developmental areas.
Small Class Sizes with Specialized Support
Each classroom is led by a certified special education teacher and instructional aide, ensuring individualized attention and instruction. Class sizes are kept small in comparison to traditional public schools to help students thrive with the support they need.
Therapeutic Integration
Both Foundation School for Autism campuses employ a certified speech-language pathologist and an occupational therapist to support the development of socio-emotive and fine motor skills, as well as a board-certified behavior analyst to provide behavioral support to students, staff, and parents.
Engaged Families, Empowered Students
We believe in partnering with families to create a supportive learning journey. Through regular communication, workshops, and training, caregivers are equipped to reinforce progress at home, staying involved every step of the way.
Supportive Learning Environment
Each campus is equipped with sensory-friendly features and accommodations that help students stay engaged and ready to learn.
Foundation School for Autism is located in San Antonio and Plano, Texas. To learn more about the unique opportunities Foundation School for Autism provides students or to apply, visit foundationschool.net for the San Antonio campus and foundationplano.com for the Plano campus.
