My youngest child is autistic and requires a specialized learning program. I searched far and wide for a jewish long island program that fit her educational, emotional, and spiritual needs, but I wasn’t having very much luck on my own.
After I consulted my rabbi, he suggested the Hebrew School for Children with Autism Special Needs at The Chai Center NY in Dix Hills.
I had no idea there was a Dix Hills Jewish center that had programs for special needs children!
The warm and loving staff is special education certified, the classes are small, and the school features inclusion activities with the regular Hebrew school.
It was important for me that my daughter was in a school that catered to her unique needs, as well as taught her the elements of her heritage.
At The Chai Center NY Hebrew School for special needs, the kids are taught to understand the importance Jewish Holidays and traditions. The dynamic and energetic staff works hard to ensure that the lessons are taught in visual, creative ways that the kids can really identify with. Music and movement are also key components to the learning process at the Chai Center School.
