Mission Statement
The FUSE School, from preschool (2.9) through first grade, uses an innovative curriculum focusing on a range of social skills including nonverbal communication, co-regulatory back and forth play, flexible collaborative play, mindfulness, yoga, sensory integration, and emotional regulation. We educate typical children and children with social and emotional challenges (such as ADHD, High Functioning Autism Spectrum Disorder, Anxiety, Social Communication Disorder, etc).
About This Cause
The F.U.S.E. SCHOOL & PROGRAM was created in 2012 by Lauren Weeks, Psy.D. As a clinical child psychologist and school consultant for years, she encountered children with social and emotional challenges who were struggling and being underserved in typical school settings. She wanted to create a place where these children felt nurtured, supported, and able to learn strategies to be able to thrive socially in and out of school. Initially, Dr. Weeks created small social groups and a summer program for children to build trust, instill confidence, enhance flexible thinking, engage in shared experiences and connect with peers. During these initial programs, she noticed a sparkle in these children’s eyes, a new- found motivation to engage, and increased self-esteem. As a result, she decided to combine her background in education with her clinical experience, and, with a huge leap of faith, created a therapeutic school for early learners. With a small class size, a little extra support, scaffolding, and nurturing the children at F.U.S.E. School began to shine and succeed in school and social situations. Currently, F.U.S.E. is a private nonprofit school for preschool – 1st grade, after school social groups, vacation camps, and summer camp. F.U.S.E. supports countless children to become successful, feel confident, and thrive social and emotionally.
