"The Madrone School / Autism Therapy in a School Setting" via Zoom

Dawn Myre - Executive Director

The Madrone School
Dawn spoke to us a few weeks ago briefly on The Madrone School which provides a school setting for autistic children but today will tell us more about the school and its mission, vision, and values.

The Madrone School is a non-profit organization that provides an alternative to the public school system in the greater Seattle area. The school offers individualized services to autistic students and their families. Their multidisciplinary team uses evidence-based therapies and personalized academics to help each child reach their maximum potential. The Madrone School provides a 1:1 student-to-staff ratio to ensure each child receives the support they need.
