Not All Great Minds Think Alike
The Janus School is the only school dedicated to educating students with learning differences in south-central Pennsylvania. Built on a beautiful 40-acre campus in Mount Joy, PA, we serve students in grades K-12+ diagnosed with a language- or math-based learning disability, ADHD, autism spectrum disorder (ASD), executive function difficulties (EFD), nonverbal learning disorder, or auditory processing disorder.
For 30 years, Janus has focused on developing the whole student to “learn how to learn”. Students at Janus confront their learning differences head on and become their own biggest advocate in negotiating school, work, and life. They are successful because they are empowered with the tools and skills to lead rich fulfilling lives.
