“Education: elwyn was founded in 1852 as a school for children with learning disabilities. Elwyn's education offerings set it apart from most other providers: it has the oldest and largest approved private school (aps) in pennsylvania, the davidson school. The school provides a rich learning environment for up to 400 children and adolescents from surrounding school districts, whose broad range of special needs include physical and intellectual disabilities, sensory impairments, social-emotional and behavioral challenges, communications difficulties, and medically-fragile conditions.

Elwyn is the only private contractor of this type in the commonwealth, administering state and federal funds to identify and provide appropriate services for every child in these two school districts with special needs, ages 3 to school age. Children that may have a developmental delay are referred to elwyn and initially screened and evaluated by an interdisciplinary team of therapists and special educators. If a child meets the criteria for services (a 25% developmental delay and in need of special education), an individualized education plan ("iep") is constructed which outlines the timing and types of services to be rendered. Services include age-appropriate preschool instruction, physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, nursing, behavior support, and specialized services to address hearing and visual impairments and autism. Iep development is individualized and based on the unique needs and strengths of each child. Children are included in early childhood settings to the maximum extent possible and supports are provided in the least restrictive manner for the child to make meaningful progress. Support for children with hearing loss or cochlear implants are provided, combining hearing therapy, audiology, speech, and/or language therapy, and assistive technology. Elwyn's early learning services supports more than 10,000 children in the city of philadelphia annually and approximately 300 children within the chester upland school district annually.
