About The Helix School 

The Helix School serves students, ages 5 to 22,  living throughout the Bay Area who have mild to moderate autism.. The school’s model and mission are based on providing an education that both  nurtures and develops students’ capabilities through an evidence-based, integrated curriculum  tailored to support a child’s developmental level, sensory processing differences, and emotional regulatory needs. The talented staff consists of educators, occupational, speech and behavioral  therapists, and mental health professionals. THS also provides services that benefit and support the Bay  Area public school district. For more information about The Helix School, please visit our website at  www.thehelixschool.org 


Our approach is relationship based and includes a variety of modalities including: kinesthetic/full body learning, experiential learning, sensory motor strategies, visuals, music, play, dance, drama, role play and therapeutic group activities. We believe in working with the “whole child” recognizing that cognitive language, social-emotional and sensory motor systems need to work together to achieve success. We stay current with best practices in education and clinical research. We value a collaborative relationship with parents, caregivers and other professionals to provide a caring and consistent environment across school and home. Our priorities are to respect, appreciate, and encourage each child’s strengths, while providing an environment through which neurodiverse people may achieve their highest potential, especially in the areas of developing a strong sense of self, building greater personal and work communities and fostering better relationships in the workplace and in their own personal lives.
