Our Approach
The Grace School uses an Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) model of instruction because we believe it is the very best way to teach children with autism and developmental disabilities.
Through use of ABA-based instruction, we have helped parents hear their child speak their names for the first time. We have observed children previously struggling in traditional settings begin to experience the joy of learning and become engaged members of our learning community.

OUR Story
When we started in 2008, few districts in Arkansas had anyone with ABA credentials on their payroll, there was no accredited ABA training program at any university in Arkansas, ABA insurance legislation had not yet passed, and state-sponsored ABA treatment options did not exist.
Our move to hire educators with ABA experience began early in our school’s history as a clear need in our community became evident. We began hiring teachers and eventually directors with ABA experience.
As the first ABA provider in Northwest Arkansas, we take seriously our leadership role in working with local agencies and organizations to promote evidence-based practices.
