Descriptiontext

Lavelle School for the Blind is a private nonprofit special education institution headquartered at 3830 Paulding Avenue in the Bronx, New York. Founded in 1904 and operating continuously for over 120 years, the school serves children and young adults ages 3 to 21 who are blind or visually impaired and have multiple disabilities. Its mission is to provide a nurturing, individualized educational environment in which each student is supported in reaching their full potential through specialized instruction and therapeutic services.

The school operates as a single unified campus offering a full continuum of educational programs: Preschool (ages 3-5), Elementary, Secondary, and Transition programming focused on post-school independence. These academic offerings are integrated with specialized support services including Orientation and Mobility training, Occupational Therapy, Speech and Language Pathology, Teacher of the Visually Impaired services, and Teacher of the Deaf and Hard of Hearing services. Instruction is delivered through Individualized Education Programs (IEPs) compliant with U.S. special education requirements. Communication with families and the broader community is maintained through The Paulding Avenue Press newsletter, a Twitter presence (@lavelleschool), and a website built on the Educational Networks platform.

As a nonprofit educational institution, Lavelle's business model is not product- or transaction-based. The school is governed by a Board of Trustees and led by an Executive Director, with Dr. Rebecca Renshaw identified as the primary contact for employment inquiries. Revenue sources — including tuition, public funding, and donations — are not publicly disclosed, with online giving processed through the Classy.org platform and supplemented by an annual INSPIRE Gala fundraising event. Operating geography is regional, limited to the Northeast United States, and the institution maintains no subsidiaries, parent company, or external private equity ownership.
