Max’s Story | Life After Serendipity

Meet Max, a Serendipity Center graduate, as he shares how Serendipity helped him succeed in school and prepared him for life beyond graduation. From the classroom to adulthood, Max’s story is a powerful reminder that the right support can change the course of a family's future.

Our program is unique in Oregon, and our model works. Serendipity is the only private, accredited school in this region that integrates special education with mental health care. We have been designated Oregon's only School of Excellence as a private special education school by the National Association of Special Education Teachers.
