The Joseph Sams School, Inc. is a private, non-profit school serving children ages two to fifteen who have mild to severe intellectual and/or physical disabilities or diagnosed developmental disabilities. The school provides intense educational training as well as speech and language therapy for its students.

Georgia and currently serves children from several south metropolitan counties. There are no geographic restrictions for attendance in the program although the majority of students reside in Clayton, Coweta, Fayette, Fulton, and Henry counties. The Joseph Sams School is the only privately operated school of its kind serving children with intellectual and/or physical disabilities or developmental disabilities in these counties south of Atlanta. Families of many of our students travel more than sixty miles because of the lack of comparable services in other localities

In addition to serving children with disabilities, the school also provides consulting services to programs developing similar intervention strategies for young children throughout the state. The Joseph Sams School staff also works closely with private therapists and physicians to provide comprehensive programs for its students. Such joint efforts have proven to be successful for these children's development.
