The Jericho School For Children With Autism

The Jericho School is a private, non-profit special education school in Jacksonville, Florida, specifically designed for children with autism and other developmental disabilities. The school utilizes a science-based curriculum rooted in the principles of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) and B.F. Skinner's analysis of Verbal Behavior. This evidence-based approach ensures that instruction is highly structured and tailored to the unique neurological needs of each student.

While the school specializes in the acquisition of language and communication skills, the curriculum extends far beyond verbal development. Programs are designed to foster academic progress, pre-academic readiness, independent functioning, and essential socialization skills. With an average class size of just 4 students and a dedicated staff of 19 teachers, the school provides a highly supportive and low-ratio environment conducive to intensive learning and personal growth.

The Jericho School offers a continuum of services, allowing the program to be customized to meet the specific requirements of each individual student and family. Admissions are handled on a rolling basis, and tuition varies depending on the specific classroom ratio and the level of specialized services required. The school also offers summer programming to support continued learning throughout the year.
