CHANCELIGHT EDUCATION COMPANIES
For more than 40 years, our alternative education solutions have helped thousands of at-risk middle and high school students struggling with academic and behavioral issues achieve success. Our programs are designed to help school districts improve graduation rates and decrease dropout rates.
Our special education solutions help students with autism spectrum disorders, developmental delays, emotional disturbance, behavioral challenges or other special needs meet their full potential academically, behaviorally and socially.
ChanceLight Education Companies include:
Ombudsman Educational Services
Many public school districts partner with Ombudsman to provide alternative programs for dropout prevention and credit recovery. Ombudsman students are at risk of not graduating because they may have missed too many school days, lack credits, or have academic challenges or adult responsibilities that keep them from being successful in a traditional school environment.
Spectrum Center Schools and Programs
Serving children and young adults aged five to 22 who have autism spectrum disorders, developmental delays, emotional disturbances, behavioral challenges or other special needs. Spectrum Center provides supplemental special education to public schools by operating nonpublic schools for students with special needs, as well as special education classrooms within public school buildings.
Atlantis Academies
ChanceLight’s Atlantis Academies provide a comprehensive education program for students in grades K-12 (up to age 22) tailored to meet the unique learning needs of each student.
Atlantis Academy is approved by the Florida Department of Education to accept several scholarships, allowing parents unprecedented choice among schools. Our L.I.F.E. programs in Coral Springs and Miami provide young adults over age 18 with skills to live more independently at home and in the workplace.
