DMA offers students on the spectrum an optimal learning environment specifically designed to meet diverse sensory needs, multiple modes of learning and will be structured to support students in both group and independent work.
Support
DMA students enjoy 1:1 instructional support in the classroom provided by highly qualified licensed educators and our unique co-location with a therapy provider ensures students receive behavioral support from skilled clinicians utilizing a unique approach to ABA therapy.
Education
DMA’s therapeutic education program combines traditional instruction, project-based learning labs, and interactive online curricula that are aligned with Indiana State Standards. With the supports from The Hope Source and our low-stim environment, diploma-seeking students have the options of the Core 40, Core 40 with Academic Honors, or General Diploma.
Program Overview
Dynamic Minds Academy is a not-for-profit 501(c)(3) entity that serves K-12 students on the autism spectrum. The DMA model is the first in Indiana to fully integrate modern therapeutic practice with accredited public education.
DMA provides an innovative choice for parents of students with ASD who desire a 48-week academic year and access to a public school education that is efficiently and effectively integrated with modern therapeutic services for their children.
While a school-based placement is appropriate for some students with autism, a therapy-based placement is appropriate for others and DMA takes the guess-work out of the equation, as parents no longer have to choose between behaviorally-appropriate therapies and public education. Dynamic Minds Academy is designed in partnership with a co-locating therapy provider to offer students with ASD evidence-based practices for personal growth within an optimal learning environment.
