Our Story

The ReNEW Therapeutic Program (RTP) is a special education program for students with complex socioemotional and behavioral needs.

RTP integrates therapeutic and educational services so that students are given a renewed educational experience and leave equipped with skills to access the full range of educational opportunities and choices available to them.

RTP staff members include teachers, paraprofessionals, and counselors who are committed to using therapeutic best practices with a primary goal of ensuring physical and emotional safety for students in our care. We take a team approach by consulting and coordinating with other stakeholders in the students’ lives including families, advocates, and outside mental health professionals. While in RTP, students’ educational needs are met through a differentiated approach which provides access to the general education curriculum while also addressing each student’s individualized educational program (IEP) goals.
