School Bio

The philosophy and vision of Carpe Diem Academy focuses on the needs of the WHOLE child. It addresses the cognitive, physical, medical, social and emotional needs of the child. Carpe Diem recognizes that children with developmental disabilities can benefit from a comprehensive approach that combines therapeutic interventions, and integrates technology to promote and enhance the learning environment and the child’s independence. Carpe Diem Academy creates the opportunity for each child to have an initial classroom experience in conjunction with an intensive therapeutic and technological environment that contributes to a successful transition into an inclusive school program. The core purposes are to allow for increased parental choice and participation, to incorporate cutting edge technology to impact the performance of children with disabilities and to increase learning opportunities for children who have difficulty achieving academically and social norms.
