Switzer School was founded in 1968 in response to the needs of educational therapy students who needed a private school setting that intensively addressed learning and emotional issues. The program now serves up to 76 students from elementary grades to high school and provides a therapeutic milieu as well as academic remediation.

Children who suffer from learning disabilities, emotional problems, attention problems, and behavioral disorders are served in the full-time school program. Many are referred by school districts in those cases in which they are not able to provide the programs necessary for these students' success.

   Switzer Learning Center has professional staff trained in providing assistance for Individualized Educational Planning (IEP) and Individualized Program Planning (IPP) meetings. Federal law (PL 94-142) and state law mandate that special education services be available to eligible children at no cost to parents.                           

   Eligibility and placement are determined by IEP teams composed of parents and school district officials. State law mandates that Regional Centers provide lifelong services to the developmentally disabled children or adults who are eligible, as determined by IPP teams composed of Regional Center officials and parents. Parents have the right to bring a professional to assist them at IEP and IPP meetings.
