The School at Springbrook
ONE SCHOOL. TWO PROGRAMS.
The Tom Golisano Center for Autism focuses on helping children with autism communicate and learn. We believe that challenging behavior is an attempt to communicate a message. That can be changed through communication, positive reinforcement, and consistency. Our program improves students’ and their families’ quality of life by motivating children to learn and increase skills using a scientific, data-driven approach.
The GEMS Residential and Day Program is for students of all levels of ability. This program includes the residential program for children who need the highest level of care and 24/7 support and the day program for children who live at home.
This program is a 10-month school year, and a 6-week summer session. Primary objectives include social and cognitive development, and functional academic, transitional, and vocational learning. We use a wide array of therapeutic techniques and services based on individual needs.
