Families begin by reaching out to share basic information about their child and their goals.
Families submit relevant records, which may include academic history, evaluations, and available support documentation.
Families meet with administration and finance to review placement, tuition, and next steps.
Depending on readiness, students may participate in a meet and greet or shadow experience to become familiar with the environment.

This school has been essential for my child who is in middle school. He struggled in other schools that did not have the right strategies and supports. This is not the case at AIA. He has soared academically and has developed friendships within the school. His teachers have given him the support he needs to be a successful student.
