About ExcelPrep Schools:

ExcelPrep Schools is a mission-driven private education organization serving neurodiverse children through structured, research-based instruction and purposeful programming. Our mission is simple and unwavering: to prioritize the academic and social success of neurodiverse learners. We are committed to delivering high-quality academic and therapeutic programming through a professional, agile approach that supports meaningful learning outcomes.

Our Programs:

ExcelPrep provides two distinct programs designed to meet the needs of diverse learners:

• PreK–8 Academic Program: Grounded in Direct Instruction and Precision Teaching, instruction focuses on core academic skills—reading, writing, and mathematics—through explicit, systematic teaching that emphasizes mastery, fluency, and generalization.
• Clinical ABA Program (Ages 3–13): A cognition- and linguistics-based ABA program focused on building cognitive skills and supporting social behavior learning within a structured instructional environment. Instruction is individualized, data-driven, and directed toward foundational skill development that promotes learning, communication, and independence.

Instructional Pillars (Across Programs)

Across both programs, ExcelPrep centers the following core practices:

• Direct Instruction and evidence-based instructional design
• Precision Teaching and data-based decision-making
• Instruction grounded in behavior science research
• Occupational Therapy delivered as a prioritized therapy alongside ABA to support sensory-motor development
