Typically, students are placed at Safe Haven School by their school districts, and we encourage parents to work with their district by informing them when exploring out-of-district placement options.

However, we do accept students whose parents or guardians will pay privately for the following reasons:

  1. Their child has not previously been enrolled in the public school system
  2. The family is new to Illinois

Please use the form below to request a tour by indicating which campus you want to see, best days and times for the visit, and providing your contact information. Having a tour of our facility does not mean your child is accepted into our program. We have a very specific admission process which is outlined below.

The following procedure should be followed when inquiring about enrollment at Safe Haven School:

  • An initial inquiry is submitted via this website or by phone.
  • A phone interview is conducted by Safe Haven School staff.
  • Student’s most recent IEP and neuropsychological evaluation are provided to Safe Haven School.
  • An intake interview with parents or guardian is scheduled. In this meeting, releases are signed allowing Safe Haven School to communicate with outside providers.
  • Outside providers are contacted to determine the appropriateness of the student for our program.
  • Student visits Safe Haven School to meet teacher(s), classmates, and therapist.
  • A starting date is agreed upon between Safe Haven School, family, and district.
  • Student’s transportation is arranged by district or parent/guardian.
  • Student attends the first day of enrollment.
