The mission of Shrub Oak International School is to improve the lives of children, adolescents, and young adults on the autism spectrum. We help our students form positive relationships through individualized strength-based and passion-based learning, and equip them with the tools they need to develop friendships, navigate their communities, and maximize their potential. Our singular focus is each student’s success and happiness.
We celebrate diversity and welcome students from all backgrounds. Our inclusive approach ensures that every student feels a sense of belonging, regardless of their abilities, cultures, or perspectives. We believe that diversity enriches our community and enhances the learning experience for everyone.
At Shrub Oak International School, we foster a collaborative environment where students, teachers, clinicians, families, and school districts work together toward common goals. This collaborative approach is vital because it ensures that every aspect of a student’s development is addressed, creating a cohesive and supportive network that promotes holistic growth.
Making friends is a cornerstone of the Shrub Oak experience. We create opportunities for students to connect, share, and build meaningful relationships. Our supportive community encourages students to be themselves and develop friendships with their peers.
Our dedicated team of educators, clinicians, and support staff are committed to providing individualized support to each student. We understand that every child is unique, and we adapt our approaches to meet our students’ individual needs.
Compassion is at the heart of everything we do. Families often remark on the bonds their children form with our staff and how genuinely our staff care about their children. Our programs and activities are designed to cultivate a sense of care and concern for others, both within our school and in the wider community.
Respect is a fundamental value at Shrub Oak International School. We treat each student with respect, and teach our students to respect themselves, their peers, their teachers, their clinicians, and the world around them. By fostering an environment of mutual respect, we work to create a positive and harmonious community where everyone can flourish.
