Frequently asked questions at our San Antonio ABC Academy ABA therapy center
How does ABC Academy in Euless support children who are already in school part-time?
ABC Academy was intentionally designed with flexibility in mind. Many children attend part of the school day at their local elementary school and spend the rest of the day at ABC Academy - The Euless Harwood Academy. This allows children to:
- Continue building foundational skills through ABA therapy
- Practice classroom routines in a smaller, supportive setting
- Generalize what they learn in therapy to real-world school situations
Our clinical team partners with families and schools in the Dallas-Forth Worth area to make sure children get the right balance of ABA therapy and school participation.
What’s the difference between Early Intervention and ABC Academy?
Think of it like building a house:
- Early Intervention: This stage is like laying the foundation and framing. We focus on core skills such as asking for help, making choices, and building communication so children can get their basic needs met.
- ABC Academy: This stage is like decorating the inside and adding the finishing touches. Here, children build on their early skills, expand their language, and practice independence in settings that look and feel like school. The goal is to gradually reduce the level of support children need so they are ready to succeed in a classroom.
What steps do you take to help children get ready for school?
At The Euless Harwood Academy, we have a clear process for helping autistic children prepare for school. This includes using data to track progress, making changes to their ABA therapy schedule, and helping them spend more time in school or group settings as they get closer to transitioning to the classroom.

Does my child need an autism diagnosis before starting ABA therapy?
Yes! Your child will need a formal autism diagnosis before they can begin ABA therapy, receive insurance coverage, and access certain school programs. As a trusted ABA therapy provider, Action Behavior offers no-cost autism evaluations, including the ADOS-2, to help guide your next steps. Contact us today to learn more about the autism evaluation process.
What is ABA therapy and how does it work?
Applied behavior analysis therapy is a research-backed method that helps children diagnosed with autism learn new skills and reduce behaviors that may make learning harder. With ABA, children can improve communication, build daily living skills, and better understand their emotions. Our ABA therapists utilize different strategies, like Discrete Trial Teaching (DTT) and Natural Environment Teaching (NET), to support each child’s progress. Therapy is delivered through a compassionate care framework and emphasizes the child’s individual needs and goals.
I think my child is showing signs of autism. Should I wait to get my child evaluated?
Many parents hope their child will catch up naturally, and it’s normal to feel unsure about when to pursue an evaluation. However, waiting too long to seek an autism diagnosis can mean missing valuable opportunities for early support.
Early diagnosis allows children to begin therapies like ABA sooner, which can improve communication, social interaction, and everyday learning. Starting ABA therapy early, ideally between 18 months and 5 years old, can give children the strongest foundation for long-term development.
