MESSAGE FROM DIRECTOR DR. SHAFER
I like to think of us all at Avalon School, student body and faculty, as being on an adventure. We are about learning and learning is, indeed, an adventure. I like to think of our teachers as opening young minds and hearts to the wonders and challenges of the world as they venture into the realm of knowledge. I like to think that God has uniquely equipped each of us for our pursuit of goodness, truth and beauty through education.
Please take a look at my website for more information about my books written about Avalon School.
At Avalon School, we provide a supportive and inclusive environment where students with diverse needs can thrive. Our specialized programs cater to students with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Specific Learning Disabilities (SLD), and students who cannot handle the rigors of the traditional public school setting. We offer tailored services to help them reach their full potential. Our expert team delivers occupational therapy, speech and language therapy, and physical therapy to address each student's unique challenges. Beyond academics, our students enjoy a range of enriching activities, including art, drama, and music classes that nurture creativity, as well as sports like basketball and cheerleading that promote physical fitness and teamwork. Our diverse clubs provide opportunities for socialization and friendship. As a success-oriented education school, we empower our students to achieve their goals, build confidence, and develop the skills they need to succeed in life.
The mission of Avalon School is to provide a nurturing, success-oriented learning environment that allows our students to maximize their learning strengths and abilities so they may work to their individual potential.
To realize this mission, Avalon employs its research based techniques, which emphasize small class size, a comprehensive communication component, ability level instruction and a nurturing learning environment.
The researchers who have designed the Avalon program draw from the influences of Daniel Goleman, ("Emotional Intelligence"), Howard Gardner, ("Multiple Intelligence") and Sally Smith ("There are No Easy Answers"). The Avalon research team has developed and added to the educational research base in the fields of "Success Oriented Education" and "Success Oriented Reading."
