Choosing the right school

Choosing the right school is one of the most important decisions you’ll make for your child, and we’re honored you’re considering LINKS – A Neurodiverse School. We believe every student deserves an educational environment where they are understood, supported and empowered to thrive.

Our admissions process is designed to make sure each student is a good fit for our program, so we can provide the individualized support needed for long-term success. We invite prospective families to schedule a campus tour, meet our team and learn more about our approach to educating neurodiverse learners.

Our admissions process

  1. Schedule an admissions call

    Meet virtually or by phone with our Head of School to discuss your child’s educational history and current needs, and whether LINKS may be the right fit. It’s a chance to ask questions and learn about our program.

  2. Schedule a tour

    Visit our campus, meet our staff and experience the LINKS community firsthand.

  3. Submit an inquiry

    Complete our application form so we can learn more about your child and your family’s educational goals.

  4. We review student records

    Our admin team reviews educational records, IEPs, psychoeducational or neuropsychological evaluations, therapy reports and anything else that helps us understand your child’s strengths and support needs.

  5. Shadow day(s)

    Prospective students join a shadow visit to experience our classrooms while our team observes learning style, communication, social interaction and overall program fit.

  6. Enrollment decision

    Decisions are based on program fit and classroom availability. If accepted, families receive an enrollment agreement and next steps for joining the LINKS community.

Admissions philosophy

LINKS offers rolling admissions throughout the school year as space allows. Because we keep class sizes intentionally small and programming individualized, decisions are based on whether our educational model is the right fit for each student.

We specialize in serving students with a wide range of neurodiverse learning profiles, including autism, ADHD, dyslexia, executive functioning challenges, anxiety and a variety of genetic disorders. Every application is reviewed holistically, recognizing each child’s strengths, interests and support needs.

Our goal is simple: every student who joins LINKS has the opportunity to experience meaningful academic growth, increased independence and genuine belonging.

Frequently asked questions

How much is tuition?

Please contact us to learn more about our programs and fees.

Are you an NPS?

We do not currently have Non Public School certification, but we do have students privately placed at our school by school districts. Contact us for more information.

Do you offer speech and occupational therapy?

Yes. Individual speech and OT therapists travel to our campus and collaborate with our team. Additional fees apply for these services.

Do you offer ABA services?

Yes. We have partnered with ABA LA to provide ABA services at LINKS, with supervision and in-classroom support provided by a BCBA.

Can IEP goals and accommodations be applied within the school setting?

Absolutely. Our smaller school environment lets us individualize learning to meet each student’s needs, and evidence-based reading, math, writing and comprehension programs are built into the school day for remediation.

What is your student-to-teacher ratio?

We keep a small ratio: our goal is five students to one teacher, with classroom aides supporting as needed. As we grow, we will continue to add staff.

Do you administer academic assessments?

Yes. We can administer WIAT and WRAT assessments for all of our students, to set baseline levels and gauge progress toward goals at the end of the year.

Where can I find the weekly schedule?

The weekly schedule is on our About page.
