Education Services

Schreiber also offers inclusive early childhood education through S.T.A.R.S. Preschool (ages 3–5) and Circle of Friends Academy (infant–school age). Both programs provide:

  • A reverse-mainstreaming model where children of all abilities learn together.
  • Integrated support from Schreiber’s therapy team when needed.
  • A nurturing environment focused on social, emotional, and cognitive development.
  • Flexible care options, with scholarships and tuition assistance available.

These programs help children build a strong foundation for learning, independence, and lifelong success.

Goal-Oriented Approach

No matter the service, our team works closely with families to develop individualized goals. Every plan is designed to maximize independence and help children participate fully at home, in school, and in the community.
