We need your support!

 

At The Sands Academy, we believe every child deserves a tailored learning journey. As a neuroinclusive, multisensory, and hybrid educational community, we’re dedicated to supporting students with unique learning needs through innovative and affirming approaches. Join us in our mission to create accessible, inspiring education that empowers students to thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.

 

Why Support The Sands Academy?

 

Our academy is more than a school; it’s a community where students feel valued, understood, and celebrated for who they are. Your support helps us:

 

Provide Specialized Resources

Equip classrooms with tools that support neurodiverse learners, such as sensory-friendly materials, noise-canceling headphones, flexible seating, and hands-on learning aids. For example, we recently introduced weighted lap pads and fidget tools to help students focus during lessons.

​

Expand Our Staff

Hire specialized staff, such as Speech-Language Pathologists (SLPs), Occupational Therapists, and Learning Specialists, who work one-on-one with students to meet their individual needs. We’re currently hiring an SLP to join our team, so your support can make a direct impact on these essential services.

​

Increase Access

Offer sponsorships for families needing tuition assistance, ensuring that financial constraints don’t prevent children from experiencing a neuroinclusive education. Last year, support from donors like you enabled two students to receive full sponsorships, helping them thrive in a supportive environment.

 

Foster Inclusivity

Create environments rich with choices and movement, respecting each student’s unique learning style. For example, our open, hall-free classrooms allow students to move freely, and we use alternative learning methods like multisensory approaches to ensure every student feels engaged and understood.
