Do not send your developmentally disabled children to this school. They staff will act like they care and try to accommodate your child. Only for them to send your child to a therapeutic day school and don't even give you the right as a parent to decide the best placement for your child. They do not care about your right as a parent. The staff also bullies and discriminates against developmentally disabled children.

Exciting location across from the DeKalb High School and minutes to the NIU campus yet the property is Unincorporated. The structures on the property will need to be razed. Do not enter. The value is in the land.
