At the Elizabeth Seton Children’s School in Yonkers, we specialize in educating students ages 3-22 years with multiple disabilities and complex medical needs. Our students are primarily residents at the Elizabeth Seton Children’s Center; however we do enroll students that reside in the community who require a specialized school that can meet their medical needs.

School districts typically refer a student for placement in our program; however families can also contact us to learn more about the program and visit the school. Prior to your visit, we ask that you share a copy of your child’s current IEP, evaluations and / or progress reports. During this appointment you will meet several staff who will speak with you to learn about your child and are available to answer your questions.

Once you make the decision to admit your child into our program, we will contact the school district to notify them of your decision and will send an Acceptance Letter informing the district of our intent to enroll your child.

Prior to the first day of school, we will need the following:

- A physical exam completed within the past 12 months
- Current immunization records
- A prescription for related services (i.e. occupational therapy, physical therapy and speech therapy) completed by your child’s pediatrician
