Allergies

We are a nut free facility. At TLA, we recognize that each student is individual and unique.  Some of our students have allergies and/or certain health and developmental needs that require personalized care and attention.

New York OCFS

The New York State Office of Children and Family Services is implemented throughout our program, and includes multiple specialities that our teachers become certified in.  Here are some of the ways we go above and beyond to ensure the safety of our students: 

• Low Student to Teacher ratio in every classroom (more teachers, fewer students)

• Strict daily/nightly cleaning protocols

• Yearly training hours logged for every teacher

• Regular unplanned visits from NY State officials
