Commitment 3

Accountability
How We Measure Success
Mission without measurement is wishful thinking. Here is how we hold ourselves accountable.
- Every enrolled child is reassessed every six months — therapy goals are quantified, not narrated.
- A documented outcome report is shared with every parent at the end of each academic year.
- Eleven of our students have transitioned to mainstream schools — that count is our north star.
- Our books are audited annually and the audit summary is available on request.
