About Learning Prep School
Learning Prep is a private day school that is an approved chapter 766 program by the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education. We have students representing 80 different towns and 3 different states enrolled. But it is so much more than its demographics. Learning Prep is a community of teachers, administrators, and students working together to help students who previously had been left behind. We encourage you to make an appointment to visit Learning Prep School to experience firsthand the essence of this school and to determine if it may be just the right match for your child and your family.
Your trust is our top concern, so providers can't pay to alter or remove reviews. Learn more

Frequently Asked Questions
Once you find a quality physical therapist you want to work with, here are a few things you need to know:
There will be an evaluation. First, you can expect an assessment to identify your child’s areas of strength and needs. A physical therapy evaluation usually lasts 30 minutes.
You’ll review and approve the care plan. The physical therapist will create a care plan, also known as a plan of care (POC), outlining the goals and strategies. They will review this with you and your care team before moving forward with therapy sessions.
Physical therapy sessions will be fun. PT with children is designed to be enjoyable. The therapist will use strategies and exercises based on your child’s needs. Exercises might involve playing on large stability balls, obstacle courses, movement equipment, stretches, and other hands-on activities.
Expect home exercises. Physical therapists commonly assign exercises to work on at home. Doing these exercises with your child outside therapy sessions can improve your child’s overall progress.
Yes! Most providers offer physical therapy in their offices or a clinical setting, but many are offering at-home options. Virtual options have become more popular in recent years. You might facilitate care with the guidance of the physical therapist.
Pediatric physical therapy is considered safe and should not hurt. Autistic children spend their time in PT moving and exploring their environment. If you are concerned about your child experiencing pain during certain exercises, especially if they may struggle to communicate and advocate for modifications, speak with their physical therapist about your concerns.
