The Tuttle School – The Tuttle School in Houston provides an educational experience that capitalizes on the mind, body, and spirit of children with intellectual and developmental disorders.

The Tuttle School provides children ages 5-25 with intellectual and developmental disabilities a nurturing environment that celebrates their differences in academic, social, and emotional abilities while empowering them to reach their full potential.

Their Full Potential

Our goal is to help students become confident, contributing, and respected members of society.

“Every child can learn and has the right to be taught in the way that he or she learns best.”

– Founder Yvonne Tuttle Streit

We provide functional skills and age-appropriate academics to students ages 5-25 with intellectual and developmental disabilities in school and community settings.

What We Do

At Tuttle, every student receives an individualized plan to help them reach their full potential. We offer a standards-based curriculum program that gives students access to a general education curriculum.

The Tuttle Way

When students are encouraged to express themselves and communicate effectively, they use the skills they learn daily to become more confident and independent.

What Our Parents Are Saying

Hilda P.

The curriculum at Tuttle is tailored to the needs of each student. Students are grouped in such a way that helps them strengthen and support each other. Students are taught at a level that challenges them without causing frustration or anxiety. My granddaughter is confident, happy, and looking forward to her next challenge.

Amber R.

The teachers at Tuttle school were the best educators we have ever had for our daughter. They listened to our wants and needs for what would be best for our daughter. They communicated with us daily, and felt like a second family. They truly care for your kiddos and want whats best.

Luis and Nicole R.

Every child has different needs, and The Tuttle School finds ways to engage each child and find a way to help that child succeed. Our child goes to school every day happy and excited and comes home filled with joy, something that never happened at his previous school.
