School Of The Holy Childhood in Rochester, NY, offers special education and therapeutic services for ages 5-21
School Of The Holy Childhood provides comprehensive educational and therapeutic services for children and young adults ages five to twenty-one with intellectual disabilities. The program focuses on the development of the "whole" student, prioritizing academic, social, physical, vocational, and recreational growth within a supportive Christian environment.
The school utilizes highly structured classroom models, including four 8:1:1 classes (primarily for elementary-aged students) and seven 12:1:1 classes. All students follow a modified New York State curriculum and participate in the New York State Alternate Assessment. Instruction is strictly IEP-based, with Individual Education Plans generated through a collaborative process between the student's home school district and the Holy Childhood staff.
Beyond academics, the school offers a variety of social and recreational programs, such as the Out & About Recreational Program for older students, Teen Socials, and the Kids Klub. Extracurricular activities like cheerleading and the Senior Prom help foster community and social skills. Summer school is also available to support continued learning.
