The Cyzner Institute Day School offers a weekday school program for children of preschool age through 6th grade. The program integrates education with a rich therapeutic milieu resulting in a dynamic learning environment. Our low student-to-teacher ratio allows for a more differentiated learning program for each child so that he or she can get the individualized support needed to move along the continuum of development. We work as a team with staff, parents, and other professionals to customize programming to meet the needs of each child. We monitor student progress closely, communicate regularly with parents, and make adjustments to the child’s program accordingly.

Our Students
Children come to the Cyzner Institute from both the public and private sectors from various settings. We have a diverse student body including those who have been diagnosed with ADHD, autism spectrum disorders, PDD, Asperger’s, OCD, language disorders, auditory processing disorder, dyslexia, reading disorders, written expression disorder, social skills delay, and behavioral/emotional needs. Our ultimate goals is to help students mainstream back into these public or private settings with the skills they need to be successful.

We understand that there may be some children, especially in the lower school years, who may not be able to tolerate certain programs for a variety of reasons. If this need should arise, decisions regarding classroom placement will be decided on a case-by-case basis. We will use the evaluation process to help us determine which program is the best fit for your child.

Please note that many children come to Cyzner Institute with delays, including academic delays, and with what we deem are gaps in their development—for a variety of reasons. We make every effort to design and to carry-out individualized programs for each student. We try to provide just the right challenge to help our students feel confident about learning without feeling overwhelmed. We strive to meet the pre-academic and academic standards that any other school would uphold. However, given the nature of our student population and the point at which they come to us in their physical, emotional, and cognitive development, we cannot make any guarantees. We cannot say with 100% certainty that we will be able to close all gaps in development.
