Eastern Florida Autism Center & Great Leaps Academy

🌟 Small class sizes = BIG results! Our low student-to-teacher ratios mean every child gets the one-on-one attention they deserve. Our little learners stay engaged, ask questions, and truly thrive! 📚✨

This week we celebrate the heart of Great Leaps Academy 💙🍎💚

We may be little, but we are MIGHTY.
Our team shows up every single day with patience, compassion, creativity, and dedication for our incredible students. From celebrating the smallest victories to navigating the biggest challenges with love, this team truly knows how to do small things with great love. ✨

Thank you for the countless hugs, lesson plans, sensory breaks, encouragement, teamwork, flexibility, and unwavering support you give our kiddos each and every day. The impact you make reaches far beyond the classroom walls, and we are so grateful for each one of you.

Our students are thriving because of the love and commitment you pour into them daily. 💙

Happy Teacher Appreciation Week to our amazing GLA family! 🍎✨

Our first 5K with Doug Flutie, Jr. Foundation for Autism and Running Zone. We raised over $30,000 for our school!
Huge thank you to everyone involved by especially those who sponsored, donated, or volunteered to make this event a huge success!

Thanks to In Motion ABA and Prestige Title of Brevard for sponsoring our 5K!
