Standing Tall is a unique program for children with disabilities that combines Conductive Education, a highly structured intensive program of daily physical training, with traditional academic studies. Our classes are very small and students use their bodies actively throughout the day while learning reading, math, literature, music, science and art. The children get out of their wheel chairs – quite literally “standing tall” – to meet physical as well as academic goals.

Course offerings include full-time and part-time academic Conductive Education programs, as well as after-school Conductive Education and specialty classes, for tots, preschool, and school-age children.
