The mission of Atlantis Academy is to provide a safe and nurturing environment to enhance our students’ academic, social and emotional growth and to foster a sense of self-worth and self-confidence.
We offer students with learning differences hope and preparation for life.
Atlantis Academy was established in Miami in 1976 as an innovative school for students who needed a personalized program that included individualized attention and specialized instruction. We emphasize the importance of parent/teacher/student relationships and form close relationships with our families so parents can be active participants in developing an educational program to achieve their child’s individual goals.
Today, Atlantis Academy includes three campuses, kindergarten through 12th grade (through age 22), in Coral Springs, Miami, and West Palm Beach. We also operate the Atlantis Academy L.I.F.E. Programs, an adult transition program, in Miami and Coral Springs. Every day, we educate more than 500 students who have unique learning needs and help them develop the education and life skills to reach their full potential academically, socially and behaviorally.

The Atlantis Academy L.I.F.E. Program (Living Independently with Fundamental Experiences) teaches young adults over the age of 18 with autism spectrum and related disabilities the necessary skills they need to live a more independent life both in the home and in the workplace.
The L.I.F.E. Program is an intensive, post-secondary program experience that helps young adults bridge the gap between school and employment. Participants can expect a blend of classroom instruction, work experience, and social enrichment opportunities to help equip them for the real world. Students of the L.I.F.E. Program benefit from services unique to our program, and gain new skill sets that prepare them for the next chapter of their lives.
