The Special Needs Schools of Gwinnett (SNS) is a private, non-profit organization that is dedicated to providing both educational and therapeutic services to families of children with a wide range of disabilities. The Special Needs Schools of Gwinnett provides a loving and challenging environment for special needs children from toddlers to 12th graders.

OUR MISSION

Provide the highest quality education and therapeutic programming available to your children with and without disabilities.
Nurture and challenge each student on his or her own level in all developmental and curricular areas.
Instill in each student the positive self-image and love for learning and personal development.
Support parents in their growing understanding of their children’s needs and abilities and in their quest to find the best learning environment for their children.

OUR PHILOSOPHY

SNS allows us to develop and nurture our children with the same needs, desires and feeling of a non-disabled child. The children’s disabilities are only inconveniences that keep them from enjoying full lives. Therefore, the disabilities must be overcome or compensated for so the children may reach their full potential. We believe that a person’s value is inherent to his or her very existence but not related to what he or she can do. Students do not have to fit into the class; instead, the class is made to meet students’ needs. SNS exists for its students.
