We focus on real progress in academics, communication, behavior, independence, and daily living skills – so every child can reach their full potential.

"It's truly a blessing to have this school in Jacksonville. Our child has flourished and we couldn't be happier. The staff is extremely well educated and caring. I recommend this school for any parent of a special needs child."

"The Mainspring staff dedicated so much time in getting to know my son. With their dedication, they found ways to help him cope with challenges in positive ways.

My son enjoys his school and looks forward to school days."
