The Hoffman Academy provides differentiated instruction to meet the diverse needs of students with complex behavioral concerns.
All programs through the school are operated according to the guidelines established by the Pennsylvania Department of Education. Students have their needs assessed and then receive instruction designed specifically to their academic level by our staff.
Both academics and behaviors are carefully monitored and individual plans are developed for each student.
We offer full-time services from a school psychologist and guidance counselor.
Students in need of related services such as speech and language support, occupational or physical therapy will have those needs met by highly qualified individuals contracted by us with outside agencies.
