WELCOME TO THE ACADEMY OF EXCELLENCE IN LEARNING
a non-public special education facility approved by the Illinois State Board of Education (ISBE).

AEL's goal is to teach students to "learn how to learn" by focusing on the prerequisites to education so that students can return to their home districts as soon as possible.

The Academy of Excellence in Learning is a non-public special education facility approved by the Illinois State Board of Education (ISBE). AEL’s goal is to focus on the prerequisites to education so that students learn the necessary skills to return to their home districts as soon as possible. We aim to house students for a minimal time and then provide a comprehensive transition and maintenance program to ensure that students continue to be successful as they transition back to their home districts with minimal to no supports. As part of our transition and maintenance program, we also offer unique individualized trainings for school clinicians and employees on our practices, as well as workshops on the principles of ABA.
