School is an important part of life for children, teens, and young adults. The School Program at City of Hope helps patients to continue life through socialization and continued academic progress during treatment and recovery.

City of Hope’s School Program helps children, teens, and young adults:

• Remain normal by keeping pace with their peers
• Increase self-esteem through opportunities for achievement

• Reduce depression and anxiety associated with treatment
• Smooth transitions back to school after treatment

The School Program provides services for all phases of education, including:

• Preschool
• Elementary school
• Middle/High school

• Vocational studies

The School Program helps to coordinate:

• Hospital tutoring
• Home instruction
• School re-entry
• Student and parent advocacy
• Special accommodations
• Neuropsychological testing
• Community resources and referrals

All students at City of Hope are encouraged to participate in our School Program. Please contact our School Program or ask any member of your medical team for more information. We are here to help.
