I really love going to school every day. More than at any other school I have ever worked in, at SINAI I really feel like I am part of a team. The teachers and therapists support one another, and we know that the administration is always open to our ideas.

Adena Lefkowitz
Teacher, SINAI Schools

You don’t realize you’re getting more than just academics and therapies when you put your child in SINAI. Once you see the difference, you feel a gigantic weight lifted from your shoulders. You understand that you are not doing this alone. Other people are invested in bringing your child to his or her potential as a well-rounded human being.

You took a child who thought he had reached the pinnacle and showed him there are more places to climb. It will continue to be a journey but you have provided the maps, ropes, and harnesses to make sure that he can reach the top!

SINAI has an incredibly dedicated staff. All loving and caring, even the administrative staff in the business office. Every teacher and therapist works so hard to help each child grow into the most self sufficient, well rounded person they can be.
