If your child in Alexandria has autism, dyslexia, ADHD, anxiety, a speech delay, or complex needs — and Alexandria City Public Schools isn't giving them what they need — you don't have to figure it out alone. We're a special-education advocacy service built by a DMV parent who has lived it. The first call is always free.
ACPS is a small, diverse city division — a setting where the right advocacy can make a real, fast difference for your child. The good news: federal law (IDEA) gives your child the same powerful rights everywhere, and here's the path to using them in Alexandria City Public Schools (ACPS).
Before you pay anyone — including us — know your free options. We'll always tell you honestly when free help is all you need.
We track the region's most respected evaluators and specialized schools — ranked by quality, never by who pays. Families near Alexandria often look at Commonwealth Academy (Alexandria) and The Lab School of Washington (DC), among others. Start with your child's specific need:
