The John A. Coleman School, with campuses in White Plains and Yonkers, recently was named a 2014-2015 National Association of Special Education Teachers School of Excellence, marking the seventh consecutive year the private school has received that honor.
Maureen Tomkiel, executive director of the John A. Coleman School, in an announcement said the award “recognizes the passion and dedication of our staff who inspire a spirit of learning and achievement in all students of all abilities. Their daily work with families and other professionals ensures that our children receive the highest quality of care and educational opportunities.”
The Coleman School is featured as a school of excellence on the NASET website.
The school provides community and center-based special education and therapeutic programs to more than 900 children from birth to 21 years old who come from more than 50 school districts in Westchester and Putnam counties, the Bronx and Manhattan. The Yonkers campus serves residents of the Elizabeth Seton Pediatric Center, a long-term care facility for children with complex medical problems.
