Who We Are

Princeton House opened its doors in 1996 because of the pursuits of three mothers who were seeking to provide the best possible program for their children with autism.  The school began as a non-profit private school with 6 students and quickly grew into a nationally recognized program incorporating the "best practices" in the field of autism by a team of the most highly qualified and experienced teachers and therapists in the area.

In 1998, Princeton House reincorporated as a state funded charter school allowing access of its program to children of all economic backgrounds.  As a charter school, PHCS is governed by a board of directors to ensure that the charter contract is upheld and that funds received will be directly used to provide a highly intensive and individualized program for its students. 

As of 2005-2006 school year we serve 240 students who range in age from 3 to 17. 
Our program has several focuses
     * early intervention preschool focusing on acquisition skills in language, social skills  and behavior modification
     * an intensive intervention program for moderate/severe children with autism
     * a middle school/high school program for children seeking Special Diplomas with focus on functional living and job skills

Our goal is for our children to develop skills that will allow them to return to a less restrictive environment and to be productive members of the community.   For those students who need a long term program, we will continue to provide an educational and therapeutic environment until their 22nd birthday.
