ARIZONA AUTISM CHARTER SCHOOL UPPER SCHOOL CAMPUS
Arizona Autism Charter School (AZACS) is a specialized educational institution dedicated to serving students with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The Upper School campus, located on East Indian School Road in Phoenix, is designed to provide a supportive and structured environment tailored to the unique sensory, social, and academic needs of neurodivergent learners. As a public charter school, it utilizes evidence-based practices—such as Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) and structured teaching methods—to foster both academic growth and functional independence.
The Upper School curriculum focuses on a blend of rigorous academics, life-skills training, and vocational preparation, aiming to equip students with the tools necessary for post-secondary success. By offering a smaller, high-support setting with specialized staff, the school prioritizes individualized learning plans that allow students to thrive beyond the constraints of a traditional classroom. The campus serves as a vital resource for families in the Phoenix area seeking a mission-driven approach to education that prioritizes the holistic development and long-term integration of students with autism into the community.
