Autism Scholarship Program

The Autism Scholarship gives parents a choice of sending their child to a special education program, other than the one operated by their child's school district, to receive the services outlined in the child's Individualized Education Program (IEP). The Autism Scholarship was first established in 2003, and New Story Schools (formerly Haugland Learning Center) has been a provider since that time.

If a child has an IEP and a diagnosis of autism, he or she may qualify for the scholarship. Please contact us Click here to contact New Story Schools. to discuss enrollment processes and options, which will include support with scholarship application.
