Therapeutic Day Schools

The mission of these programs is to provide each student with individualized therapeutic interventions to ensure academic success. Such interventions take the form of individual therapy, crisis intervention and individualized educational planning. Therapeutic interventions focus on teaching appropriate social skills, encouraging affirmative choices and rewarding the positive behaviors of students, rather than being predominantly focused on the punishment of negative behavior. These 12-month comprehensive programs offer rigorous academic programs combined with a strong focus on the social/emotional growth of the students. It is a co-educational population composed of students ages 12-21 who exhibit a wide range of behavioral/emotional problems. Each location specializes in treating students with emotional disorders, cognitive impairments, learning disabilities and other health impairments. These programs operate Monday through Friday at 2 separate locations. All programs are approved by the Illinois State Board of Education and North Central Association.
