CI offers a variety of services, layers of support and group activities all in one place. Children develop pre-academic, academic, and daily living skills in an intimate and highly customized environment. Our educational program is a supplement to, and in some cases, an alternative to typical school. We work closely with parents and other key professionals to provide a coordinated response to your family's specific needs in order to help the children function as independently as possible in everyday life. We work with children who have been diagnosed with austism spectrum disorders, pervasive developmental disorder, Asperger's, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder, language disorders, auditory processing disorder, reading disorders, written expression disorders, social skills delay, and behavioral/emotional needs.


For preschool through kindergarten, this program consists of small classes of three students and one teacher. There is an assistant teacher for every six children. For 1st through 5th grade, the classes typically consist of four students and one teacher. There is an assistant for every eight children. In the weekday school program, children learn the essential developmental skills and/or academic skills such as reading, handwriting, spelling, written expression, math, social studies, science, and more advanced language skills. They also learn to successfully interact with each other as they build social skills throughout the day including during snack time, lunch, and gross motor play. Customized learning centers and a sensory support program are integral parts of this program. Other programs are available before and after school for all ages to enhance students’ social and extracurricular experiences. (Please see Our Services – Weekday Program for more detail including therapeutic interventions integrated into the school day, hours of operation, and other programming.)

The goal of the Cyzner Institute is to help children build key developmental and academic skills using highly customized curricula and treatment approaches to meet the specific needs of each child and family. As such, each child and each child's family brings a diverse approach to working with and raising a child with special needs. To maximize and capitalize on this diversity, the CI Parent Resource Group ("CPR") was founded. The purpose of the CI Parent Resource Group is to 1) enhance communication amongst parents of children attending CI, 2) provide a structure to provide formal and informal education to all parents with children with special needs and 3) facilitate parent participation in the activities at the institute and participation of the community (including parents of children not currently at the institute) in sponsored events.
