New Campus Campaign
The Arbor School's Board of Trustees has identified an urgent need for a capital campaign to fund the development and construction of a new campus. Today we educate and provide therapy services for 45 students, birth to 15 years. The new campus will enable the school to serve approximately 100 children, birth to 18 years. Because of our extensive waiting list, the Arbor looks to the future to provide a place for education, training and hope, for these area children and their families. In addition to providing space for additional students, the new facilities will better accommodate on-site therapy and diagnostic services as well as vocational and secondary education.
The campaign has raised funds for the initial phase of the project and has purchased over 5 acres
of land near the present Arbor School. Plans include a 35,000 square foot state-of-the-art facility
including a modern therapy and diagnostic center, 14 classrooms, vocational education rooms and a
mini-apartment for learning independent living skills. The new campus is being designed to
accommodate a phased approach of construction so that the school's needs may be met on a timely basis.
We anticipate moving into the new school building late in 2008. The Arbor Trustees have launched a
campaign to raise 5 million dollars to construct the new School and Diagnostic/Therapy center.
For information, to volunteer or make a contribution, please call Kate Crady, Coordinator of the
Capital Campaign at 713-316-0114.
