01What it does

What Aucocisco School does

Mission

To provide comprehensive services to students with unique learning needs, whether they need a full- or part-time school placement, or an after-school program.

As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.

Programs

  1. Aucocisco School provides an intensive remedial education program for students identified with learning disabilities, autism, ADHD, and other learning differences who have struggled in other educational settings. Using evidence-based instructional strategies, Aucocisco School improves the literacy and mathematics outcomes for students in this at-risk group. Our intensive supports also enable students to make gains in social-emotional and executive functioning skills. Students close achievement gaps, and most return to more inclusive settings within 2 - 3 years, using the skills they develop here to thrive. Students may attend either full-time or part-time.

  2. The school runs after-school programs including homework support, direct instruction in reading, math and executive functioning skills, subject area tutoring for elementary through college ages, academic testing and social thinking and enrichment programs in STEAM areas. The after-school program takes place at the School's facility, and there are roughly 20 after-school students. For many students who cannot attend the School during the school year, summers provide a time for intensive academic assistance at the School's facility. Programs for social thinking and STEAM enrichment round out the day for students who have intensive academic programming in the mornings.

The organization over time

Each line starts at 100 in 2019, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2019, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.

How it's funded, over time

1 of 3 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 0% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

From the IRS filings of Aucocisco School’s funders (the co-funder graph). Association, not causation. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $358 arriving through sponsors registered in 1 state is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been.
