About ExcelPrep Schools

ExcelPrep is a mission-driven private program serving neurodiverse children through structured, research-based instruction. Our mission is simple: prioritize the academic and social success of neurodiverse learners. We are a professional and agile organization committed to delivering high-quality academic and therapeutic programming that supports meaningful learning outcomes.

ExcelPrep offers two distinct programs designed to meet the needs of diverse learners ages 3–13:

PreK–8 Academic Program

Our PreK–8 Academic Program is grounded in Direct Instruction and Precision Teaching. Instruction focuses on core academic skills—reading, writing, and mathematics—using explicit, systematic teaching methods that emphasize mastery, fluency, and generalization. This program is designed for students with learning disabilities and neurodiverse profiles who benefit from structured, data-driven instruction.

Clinical ABA Program (Ages 3–13)

Our ABA Program is cognition-linguistically based and emphasizes instruction within a structured environment. The program integrates Applied Behavior Analysis with teaching strategies that support language development, reasoning, executive functioning, and social competence. Instruction is individualized, data-driven, and focused on building foundational skills that support learning, communication, and independence.

Across Excel programs, we center:

• - Direct Instruction and instructional design
• - Precision Teaching and data-based decision-making
• - Instruction grounded in behavior science research
• - Occupational Therapy as a prioritized therapy alongside ABA in support of sensorimotor development

Our mission is to provide a nurturing, academically focused learning environment where neurodiverse students can develop strong academic foundations, cognitive-linguistic skills, and the confidence needed to succeed in school and beyond.
