Gersh Academy is a private school serving students on the Autism Spectrum ages 5 to 21. We have locations in W. Hempstead, Hauppauge and Huntington, New York, as well as 2 locations in Puerto Rico. Gersh Academy has been providing customized services for children on the Autism Spectrum since its inception in 1991. In addition to school-aged programs, The Gersh Experience, located in North Tonawanda, NY, is a residential supported living environment for young adults on the Autism Spectrum.
At Gersh Academy, our mission is to help children on the Autism Spectrum develop the knowledge and skills they will need to navigate successfully through life. We believe every child deserves the opportunity to grow and thrive in the school environment as well as in the community and at home.
