NeuroCatalyst Academy is currently enrolling Kindergarten through 5th grade students. Our school is designed specifically for neurodivergent learners, with a special focus on supporting Black and Brown children with ADHD, autism, and other unique learning profiles.
As our students grow, we grow with them—expanding grade levels each year to continue providing the consistent, affirming, and tailored education they deserve.
This is more than a school. It’s a safe, empowering space where neurodivergent children are seen, celebrated, and supported every step of the way.

Social-Emotional Development: We prioritize emotional intelligence, communication, and confidence-building, helping students navigate the world with self-awareness and resilience.
PE & Technology Integration: Physical movement and digital literacy are essential parts of our weekly routine, supporting both body and mind.

Four-Day Weeks
Fridays Off!!!!
We follow a four-day school week, with students attending classes Monday through Thursday. This schedule provides more time for rest, personal growth, and family connection, with Fridays off to recharge. Designed with well-being in mind, our schedule helps reduce stress and supports a healthier, more balanced lifestyle for both students and their families.
In the Field Friday
Monthly Field Trips!!!
We believe in hands-on learning beyond the classroom. That's why we have In the Field Fridays, where once a month, we attend an educational field trip. These trips provide students with the opportunity to explore the world around them, deepen their learning, and connect real-world experiences to what they’re studying. It's a fun and engaging way to bring lessons to life while fostering curiosity and a love of learning.
