Vista Learning Center’s admissions committee will review completed applications and schedule an interview with a student’s parents and representative from their referring school district. A full-day visit for the student is also part of the admissions process. Accepted students are first enrolled for a 45-day diagnostic period, followed by a TEAM meeting. At this point, the enrollment process is complete.

The foundation of Vista Learning Center programs is the belief that no two students learn or are developmentally alike. We must utilize a broad variety of best practices to identify the one that is most effective for each student. The core tenet of Vista Learning Center is a sense of community belonging. Increased academic knowledge combined with emerging social thinking skills essential to navigating the ever-present demands of life must be accomplished through a collaborative effort by parents, school, and related service providers.
