What this is, in plain language

Easterseals Academy is a non-public therapeutic day school for students with autism spectrum disorder, emotional disability, developmental delay or intellectual disability, running three campuses (Chicago, Tinley Park and Machesney Park) for students ages 3 to 22.

Getting started

Enrolment is arranged through a student's home school district, which contracts with Easterseals to provide the placement; families can also contact the Director of Non-Public Schools directly.

Written from what the provider publishes, to save you decoding it. It describes the service; it is not our view of how good it is.
