Variety school

Variety School is a K-12 public charter school at 2800 Stewart Ave in Las Vegas built specifically around children with special learning needs. It serves students ages 5 through 18, split into a 5 to 12 bracket and a 13 to 18 bracket, and follows a school-year calendar rather than staying open through the summer.

Because it's a public charter school rather than a private therapy clinic or after-school program, Variety School combines full academic instruction with on-site therapy services: speech therapy, occupational therapy, physical therapy, and behavioral therapy are all listed alongside standard K-12 coursework and special education. Every student works from an Individualized Education Plan, or IEP, which is the same legal framework used in public school special education programs nationwide.

The school describes small class sizes and individualized education as core parts of how it operates, which fits its mission of serving students who need more one-on-one support and a more adaptive pace than a typical classroom offers. The listing marks the school as special needs friendly, with accommodations specifically covering IEPs, speech therapy, occupational therapy, physical therapy, behavioral therapy, small class sizes, specialized instruction, adaptive curriculum, and an inclusive environment.

As a public charter school, Variety School is listed at no cost, in the Free price range, which is consistent with how public charter schools are funded and enrolled compared to private special education programs that typically charge tuition.

School hours run Monday through Friday from 6:30 AM to 3:00 PM, and the school is closed on weekends. Since it's a charter school, enrollment likely follows a specific application or lottery process rather than simple sign-up, so families interested in Variety School should call (702) 799-7938 or visit varietynv.org to ask about current enrollment steps, eligibility, and how the IEP and therapy services are coordinated for a specific child's needs.
