You Are Not Alone
If your child has been told they are too much, too quiet, too complex, or not the right fit, we want you to know something.
You are in the right place.
Roosevelt Academy was built for the children who learn differently. Here, your child is not a problem to manage. They are a person to understand.

It Is Not Too Late
Parents often ask if their high school student can still transfer to Roosevelt.
The answer is yes. Even seniors.
If your child is in the middle of high school, the end of high school, or already through 12th grade, there is still a place for them here. We meet students where they are. We help them finish strong.

More Than Academics
Education should prepare students for life, not just the next test.
At Roosevelt, students build communication, confidence, and independence through real world learning. They learn to advocate for themselves, regulate their emotions, and lead with their strengths.
Your Child's Support Team
Roosevelt Academy partners with experienced clinical professionals to provide integrated support during the school day so your child receives the help they need without being pulled out of school for separate appointments.
Our clinical partnerships include:
Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA): on-site behavioral support, staff training, and individualized behavior planning for students who need it.
Speech-Language Therapy: contracted speech-language pathology services delivered at school, integrated into your child's routine.
Pediatric Wellness: Roosevelt partners with Glow Pediatrics for pediatric health guidance and clinical consultation, ensuring your child's medical and developmental needs are supported alongside their education.
Occupational Therapy: available through our clinical network to support sensory processing, fine motor development, and daily living skills.
These services are coordinated with your child's Navigator so support happens naturally throughout the day. Your child does not feel pulled aside. They feel supported.
The World Is Our Classroom
Most schools keep learning inside four walls. Roosevelt takes it outside. Every week, our scholars board the Roosevelt Academy van and head into the community. Not for a field trip. For real learning in real places. Libraries, grocery stores, restaurants, community centers, and destinations across Oklahoma City become the classroom.
Each outing is structured with personalized goals for every student. A younger student might practice greeting a librarian and finding a book independently. An older student might plan a meal on a budget, navigate a store, and pay at the register on their own. Every experience builds executive function, social confidence, decision-making, and the independence your child will carry for the rest of their life. This is what education looks like when you believe your child is capable of more than a worksheet.
Why Roosevelt
Before you choose any school, ask these questions.
Every school will tell you they care about your child. These questions reveal whether they have the structure, the expertise, and the depth to deliver on that promise.
-
Roosevelt Academy is accredited by Cognia, the same global accreditation body that accredits public school systems across the United States. Your child's education carries a credential that is recognized by schools and universities everywhere.
-
Many schools for neurodiverse students specialize in a single diagnosis. Roosevelt serves the full range of neurodiverse learners: autism, ADHD, Down syndrome, dyslexia, nonverbal and minimally verbal students, sensory processing differences, executive function challenges, and more.
-
Roosevelt's proprietary learning system personalizes every aspect of your child's day: how content is delivered, how support is provided, and how progress is tracked, all in real time, all invisible to the student. Your child does not feel accommodated. Your child feels capable.
-
Every Roosevelt day begins with a check-in. Before we ask your child to perform, we ask how they are feeling. A child who is settled and safe does their best thinking.
-
Roosevelt students move through a Leadership Pathway that builds confidence, self-advocacy, independence, and real-world capability. We do not manage your child. We develop them.
-
Community outings, concurrent college enrollment, entrepreneurship, public speaking, and life skills instruction are built into the program. We are preparing your child for a life.
-
Roosevelt serves PK through 12th grade plus a Post Graduate Program through age 21. Your child never has to leave and start over.
-
Roosevelt's Navigators are trained through a proprietary system specifically for neurodiverse learners. They are not generalists. They are specialists who chose this work. A note about cost: We understand that investing in your child's education is a significant decision. We also know you may find options that cost less. We encourage you to visit those schools and ask every question on this page. Roosevelt answers yes to every one, because we were built from the ground up to do exactly this, by a parent who lived exactly what you are living and refused to accept anything less for her own child. The question is not how much the school costs. The question is what your child receives. Roosevelt Academy is approved to accept Lindsey Nicole Henry Scholarships and the Oklahoma Parental Choice Tax Credit.
