Accreditation

Milestones is a therapeutic day school serving students from the elementary grades up through age 22 that is fully approved and monitored by the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education.  We service students from approximately 45 public school districts whose unique educational and therapeutic needs merit an out of district school placement under the state’s special education law, Chapter 766. We are proud that we have been consistently identified by the Department of Education’s Office of Approved Special Education Programs as demonstrating exemplary compliance across our school programming and operational practices
