About Us
The Referral Process -
The Learning Academy serves students who have been identified as having severe emotional/behavioral disabilities and students with significant autism. Students are referred to TLA when they are not experiencing success in their area school environment.

About Our School
Founded in 1971, Coastal Georgia Comprehensive Academy is a special education school whose focus is to educate students with severe emotional/behavioral disorders, as well as students with moderate to severe autism. We serve students ranging from pre-kindergarten through high school.
Our teachers and staff are entrusted with the great responsibility of providing a quality education to our students in a nurturing and therapeutic environment. This vision is built upon a foundation of investment and trust in which students are encouraged and supported to grow both academically and emotionally. Through establishing this relationship with our students, we are able to provide them with opportunities to grow and develop. This mindset also better prepares our students to deal with the inevitable adversities and roadblocks that they will encounter during life. By supporting them through difficult academic and emotional times, our students will learn and grow and then be empowered to face future challenges. In recognizing the unique and varied needs of our learners, we strive to encourage our students and engage them in their own education, so they are able to realize their true potential.
