Catering to students in the Fort Lauderdale / South Florida area, AEF Schools is a multiple-campus, co-educational private school program for students in Grades 1-12. Our four separate schools provide Elementary, Middle and High School Preparatory programs, as well as a therapeutic and social program for children with learning difficulties. AEF schools offer a traditional curriculum which is supplemented by social, cognitive, and life skills, specifically designed to teach both the English language and culture.
AEF caters to students who, for one reason or another, are not being successful or as successful as they should be academically, socially, and/or at home. Many of AEF School’s students have been diagnosed with ADHD, Aspergers, Autism, and related disorders. Some students do not have a diagnosis; they simply perform better in a smaller, safer, and more structured environment.
Instead of combining all of our programs and students on one large campus, AEF has opened multiple campuses in order to better accommodate the individual needs of our students. Each campus focuses on specific goals and caters only to students whose needs can be met.
