League School for Autism opens a world of opportunities to students with Autism.
Our team of creative, collaborative, and committed special educators creates and implements an individualized curriculum for each student based on their strengths to prepare them for a fulfilling life in a neurodiverse world.
As one of the first schools devoted to Autism in New England, we invoke a pioneering mindset in everything we do, including how we guide our students based on their own vision of their future.
As the only school in Massachusetts to offer the innovative and evidence-based SCERTS® Model, which allows us to strategically customize a curriculum for each student, we are proud to measure success through the individual student’s achievements.

SINGAPORE TEAM VISITS
Yesterday, League School for Autism hosted visitors from St. Andrew's Autism Center in Singapore (@saacsg), who had the opportunity to learn more about the history, philosophy, structure, curriculum, and admissions of League School. We're honored to be on their list of schools that foster neurodiversity-affirming practices that they would consider implementing in their own organization. Thanks for visiting!

WONDERFUL VISIT TO WHEATON
Recently, League School for Autism students went to the Mars McClean Science Building at Wheaton College. The students toured the different greenhouses and helped to plant seeds to grow in the greenhouses. They also visited the endangered turtles being raised for release in the Spring. League School Vocational students hope to have more opportunities to collaborate with Wheaton College in the future!

WE'RE HERE: THEN, NOW, ALWAYS
March is Developmental Disabilities (DD) Awareness Month, led by the National Association of Councils on Developmental Disabilities (NACDD) to promote inclusion, community, and the removal of barriers for people with disabilities. People with developmental disabilities have always been part of our communities — and always will be. We’re Here: Then, Now, Always highlights how far the disability community has come and why continued advocacy efforts have strengthened the commitment to inclusion and community living. Community members, businesses, faith organizations, schools, and local governments are encouraged to participate by sharing campaign materials and local “Then / Now / Always” stories.
