Holistic Evaluation
We evaluate each student to understand the current level of their neurodevelopment, social-emotional-behavioral skills, learning style, academics, independence and physiology. Our evaluation includes:
-
Proprietary neurodevelopmental profile including input and output channels, early reflex integration, sequential processing, working memory, hemispheric dominance, and cross-lateral abilities
-
Nutritional consultation
-
Parent intake meeting to discuss their goals
-
qEEG brain map to identify specific areas of a student’s brain that are under-performing
-
Achenbach assessment to understand social, emotional, and behavioral well being
-
Additional academic, developmental, and psychosocial assessments

Program Design
Students receive an individualized program consisting of hundreds of activities designed to target specific under-performing areas of the brain, maladaptive thoughts and feelings,
behavioral challenges, and academics challenges. Learn more about specific activites and interventions here.

Daily Implementation
Rewiring and producing lasting change is a day-to-day process. Each individualized program is completed daily with intensity and frequency by dedicated team of teachers who embrace our core values of hope, truth, and love. See a typical day here.
Implementation can occur in a variety of places:
-
On our campus in Roswell, GA
-
Within a student’s current school through in-school support and training
-
In-home
-

Wrap Around Support
The Hope School operates within a collaborative approach through consistent wrap-around support between home and school. This includes regular updates and scheduled calls, nutritional recommendations, activities to implement at home, and in-home observations. We find that lasting change occurs when all parties work together.

Transition Plan
Our goal is for each student to be prepared to succeed back in their own school. We work closely with schools throughout the process, including implementing an IEP and creating specific exit criteria goals that outline when a student is ready to transition back to the school.
Our Beliefs
Our experience shows us that while students want to do well, root neurodevelopmental challenges create behavioral challenges.
A Sample Day At The Hope School
Each day, students implement their individualized programs to address the root neurodevelopment causes of their behavioral challenges.
Let's Talk
Our team is available to discuss your student's needs and how the Hope School can help.
