Educational Services Overview

The Villa provides an on-grounds Private Academic School, called The Villa Academy. 

The Villa Academy is a full-time emotional support education program that meets the educational needs of the youth in our residential care whose IEPs require this level of support.  The Villa Day School also provides full-time emotional support services to students whose educational needs are not able to be met within their home school districts.   In addition to the Special Education teachers providing high-quality instruction, the programs are supported by several professionals trained in positive behavior support.
