Who We Serve

Thinking Mainspring might be the right fit? We’d love to meet your family and learn more about your child. Exploring your options doesn’t have to feel overwhelming - we’re here to help you gain clarity and see whether Mainspring could be a good match.

Looking for a school that fits your child's unique needs?

When your child is in the right school, you can feel the difference.

You’re not alone in this journey. Many families who reach us have already tried other options - and are looking for a setting where their child is truly understood and supported. At Mainspring, we believe every child can learn and grow when given the right support, attention, and environment. That’s why we pair passionate teachers with individualized plans - so your child’s school day is purposeful and filled with progress.

The Plan

1

School Tour

Visit campus and see classrooms in action. Tours are welcoming and informative, with plenty of time to ask questions and learn how Mainspring supports students with different needs.

2

Student Observation & Records Review

If Mainspring may be a possible match, an on-campus student observation and parent interview may be scheduled to better understand your child’s needs and determine program fit. The next step is a review of relevant records (such as an IEP, evaluations, and reports). 

3

Enrollment & Next Steps

If Mainspring is able to meet your child’s needs and an opening is available, the team will guide your family through enrollment and next steps in a clear, supportive way.

Questions are always welcome – we’re happy to help you explore. Admissions Process: What to Expect.
