A Place for All Children to Learn

Introducing Mason’s Place Too, A Home Away from Home for children of all types of needs and abilities, autism, other needs, or no extra or special needs. At MPT we offer a place for distinctive children to learn and grow.

Here, in our safe, secure and caring environment, children develop a strong foundation necessary for a productive academic and social life.

Mason's Place Too recognizes that children learn in different ways, so we’ve created an individualized educational experience that encourages active learning and is uniquely customized to fit your child’s learning and ability style. We customize these educational experiences for children with a wide array of special needs or children without any extra needs.

Mason's Place Too cares for each child needs on a case by case basis - we know more than most how each child is different!

Day School

Mason’s Place Too offers comprehensive special education day school programs for students, ages 3-12, with moderate global delays associated with autism and other developmental disabilities. And children of all types of needs and abilities are welcome. We are authorized to provide education and care for children without disabilities as well. The primary goal is to enable each student to realize his/her fullest potential and to become as independent as possible.
