Eligibility & Admissions
Palm Beach School for Autism offers specialized educational services tailored to students aged 3-21 who are on the autism spectrum. Our admissions process is designed to ensure that every student receives the appropriate support and resources.
For our K-12 program, we admit students with autism spectrum disorder as the primary eligibility listed on their current Individualized Education Program (IEP). Our Preschool program, on the other hand, accepts students with autism spectrum disorder or related disabilities as the primary eligibility on their IEP.
At Palm Beach School for Autism, we maintain a rolling enrollment, dependent on program availability. We do, however, make exceptions in cases where students meet our enrollment criteria and satisfy one of the following additional conditions:
Siblings: We give priority to siblings of students who are already enrolled in one of our programs, recognizing the importance of family support and continuity.
Governing Board Members’ Children: Children of members serving on our governing board are also considered for admission.
Employee and Security Staff: Children: We extend admission consideration to the children of our dedicated employees and security staff, acknowledging their commitment to our school community.
Children of Active-Duty Military Members: We also prioritize children of active-duty members of any branch of the United States Armed Forces
To begin the admissions process, families must provide a copy of the student’s most recent IEP and complete a Zoom intake meeting scheduled by the school.
For admissions information, next steps, or questions about enrollment, contact the Regional Executive Director, Ann Eisenberg, or call our lead school at (561) 533-9917. We are here to support your family throughout the process.
