Autism Schools & Special Education in Worcester

Worcester has two Chapter 766 approved private schools built specifically around autism - one with a 1:2 staff ratio and a BCBA in every classroom. Massachusetts funds these placements through school districts rather than through vouchers, which means the substantive conversation is with your Team, not an admissions office.
