About EPIC Academy | A Better School

EPIC Academy is a Brooklyn-based independent elementary school program designed to provide top-tier academic instruction and behavioral support to students with special needs. Our students present with diagnoses and behavior profiles that manifest in myriad ways, including physical aggression, environmental aggression, and difficulties with mood regulation. Through our trauma-informed, therapeutic program, we create a safe community of learners who are valued and celebrated for their differences. Our goal is to create the least restrictive environment possible for our students and to give them the tools they need to succeed for the rest of their lives. Because we believe our students thrive in a small, close-knit community, we keep our enrollment small, and children are grouped in classes of 4-8 led by 1 special education teacher and 1-3 assistant teachers. We currently serve students in grades kindergarten through grade 5.
