ETC Phoenix School - Fairfax City

[Anonymous]

For families that are looking for a very small, nurturing school in Fairfax, I wanted to share our positive experience at the ETC Phoenix School (https://www.etcphoenixschool.com/). This is a new, inclusive micro-school that caters to students of all abilities. Our autistic elementary-aged son is thriving there and being academically challenged, encouraged, and supported in ways he never was in FCPS. I struggled to find an alternative to public that I thought would work for us, so I want to share with others who may be similarly searching for alternatives, or possibly reluctantly considering home schooling because your child needs a smaller, kinder, and calmer environment.

Are you still happy with the school? Does anyone else here have feedback on this school? We are considering options for our 10 year old child who has level 1 Autism and ADHD.
