How your donation helps enhance the student experience at our school.


NEEDS-BASED SCHOLARSHIPS

Many students could not attend The Independence Academy without tuition assistance. With the exception of the Indiana Choice School voucher program, scholarship funding is made possible solely through the generosity of our donors. Awarding scholarships also enables us to maintain accessibility to a diverse group of children.

 

PROGRAM + AMENITY ENHANCEMENTS

As an autism-specific school, we are committed to offering unique curriculums, activities and spaces that wholly nurture our students. This includes innovative technology that promotes independence, expands communication and increases social interactions of children with ASD.

 

TEACHER RECRUITMENT + DEVELOPMENT

The Independence Academy endeavors to attract top-performing educators with specialized experience in evidence-based practices for adolescent students on the autism spectrum. Moreover, participating in continued training empowers our faculty to master new methodologies which support the evolving needs of our unique student population.

 

ANNUAL OPERATING COSTS

The Independence Academy is a federally registered 501c3 nonprofit organization and relies heavily on public support to fund our mission. Sustaining ongoing expenses central to our operation allows us to continue serving autistic students who need a place to belong and succeed.
