Do you have a preschool child who is challenged by special needs and/or disabilities? Easterseals Charter Schools may be the perfect fit for your little one.

In Daytona Beach and DeLand, Easterseals Northeast Central Florida Charter Schools provide hands-on and comprehensive education for students ages 3 to 5. The inclusive classroom setting integrates students with special needs and typically developing students with the Easterseals Child Development Center. This helps all students achieve the best possible outcomes.

Just take a look at Walter, a student who graduated last year from the Easterseals Charter School in DeLand. “Walter loves school,” noted his mother. “So for us it was just important that he felt safe and welcomed. Easterseals Charter School was fun for him, and he looked forward to going every day.” Walter’s teachers ensured he transitioned well and gave him whatever downtime he needed. They accommodated his schedule and kept his parents aware of any issues in the classroom.

“My son felt safe and comfortable to grow and learn at Easterseals,” Walter’s mom said. “I can’t ask for more from a school.” When it was time to leave the charter school, Walter was ready to face new challenges and learn with his brother and friends at a public school in DeLand.
