School Overview

Olympus Academy, located at 755 E 100th St in Brooklyn, is a specialized educational institution that functions as a District 75 school. District 75 programs in New York City are uniquely designed to provide highly supportive, structured learning environments for students with significant cognitive, behavioral, or physical challenges who require specialized instruction that cannot be adequately provided in a traditional general education setting.

The school focuses on fostering both academic growth and functional independence for its student body. By utilizing small class sizes and a high staff-to-student ratio, Olympus Academy creates a personalized educational experience tailored to individual needs. The curriculum emphasizes life skills, social-emotional development, and therapeutic support, ensuring that students receive the comprehensive services—such as speech, occupational, or physical therapy—necessary to help them transition toward greater autonomy and success within their community.
