Carson Autism Center of Excellence - CACE
Vision
To create a transformative learning community where every child—regardless of ability, diagnosis, or developmental challenge—discovers their God-given potential and thrives academically, socially, emotionally, and spiritually. CACE envisions a future where children with diverse learning needs are equipped to excel in school, flourish in life, and lead with confidence, purpose, and dignity.
Mission
CACE exists to provide world-class, individualized special education services that honor the uniqueness of every learner. Through small learning environments, research-based instruction, ABA and therapeutic support, structured classrooms, a UNIQUE curriculum tailored to diverse needs, parent education, and a Christ-centered foundation of love and excellence, we partner with families to build a bridge to growth—one student at a time.
We serve K–5 learners through academic instruction, behavioral support, speech and language services, 504 and dyslexia interventions, before- and after-school care, and transportation within a 10-mile radius, ensuring every child has access to the support they deserve.
