Soaring Eagle Academy is a non-profit organization founded by speech-language pathologists Linda Cervenka, Michele Ricamato, and Deanna Tyrpak. The Academy will be the first school in the Midwest to provide a social and academic learning environment utilizing a DIR® (Developmental Individual-Difference Relationship Based) approach for students age five through adolescence diagnosed with Autism and related disorders. Parents will be respected as active partners in their child's education. Together we envision a school where each student will celebrate the joy of learning.
