About Us

Rooted in Cayer Values

Founded by the leadership of Cayer Behavioral Group, Tallahassee Autism Academy extends a legacy of family-first care into education.

Every Child Deserves a Place to Belong

Tallahassee Autism Academy (“The Academy”) is a forward-thinking hybrid educational model created for children diagnosed with autism. The Academy blends the structure of a traditional classroom with the compassion andexpertiseof the Cayer Behavioral Group team.

We combine the flexibility of homeschool-style learning with the community of a private school — without DOE regulation — guided by educators and behavior professionals who honor each learner’s individuality while cultivating confidence and connection.

We are currently in the process of securing formal approval as a registered private umbrella school with the Florida Department of Education (DOE) and as a Step Up for Students and Personalized Education Program (PEP) vendor. Once approved, The Academy will accept all eligible Florida scholarship programs for qualifying families.
