Our Story
Built specifically for the children who are too often overlooked.
Amazingly Uplifted Academy was born out of more than two decades of showing up for children with special needs and a deep conviction that every child deserves an environment built just for them.
Founder Veronica Crafton has spent 20 years in the world of special education, first as a classroom teacher, then as a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA), a children's minister, and the founder of Amazingly Uplifted Consulting, where she has trained and coached hundreds of special education professionals across the country.
Through all of it, one thing became clear: children with autism, intellectual disabilities, and developmental delays thrive when their environment is intentionally designed around their needs, where they aren't just accommodated but truly celebrated, where they aren't just managed but genuinely understood.
So Veronica decided to build exactly that.
Amazingly Uplifted Academy is a private early intervention preschool opening in Alpharetta, Georgia in August 2026, a place where every decision, every classroom, and every relationship is built specifically for children ages 3 to 5 with autism, intellectual disabilities, and developmental delays. Not as an afterthought. From the very beginning.
Our philosophy
How we think about early childhood education.
Every Family
is a partner, not a bystander. We communicate openly and often, because you know your child best, and we are better together.
Every Child
is a capable learner. Our students are not defined by their diagnoses. They are curious, creative, and full of possibility.
Every Teacher
is a specialist and a champion. Our staff show up every day with expertise, heart, and an unshakeable belief in every child they serve.
Our Space
is designed for your child. Sensory-thoughtful classrooms, purposeful environments, and intentional design, because the right space is part of the learning.
Why we're different
Families are exhausted from systems that weren't built with their child in mind. We were.
Built by a BCBA & Veteran Educator
Veronica brings 20 years of hands-on special education experience, behavior science expertise, and a genuine love for this work. This isn't a business venture. It's a calling.
Personalized Learning Plans, Not Paperwork
We don't treat your child's plan as a compliance document. We treat it as the roadmap it's meant to be. Every goal is individualized, every plan is implemented with intention, and every family is a true partner in the process.
Tiny Class Sizes, Real Relationships
Our student-to-teacher ratio is intentionally small. Your child is truly known, by name, by need, and by the things that make them light up.
Family as Partners
You've been your child's first and most important teacher. We don't forget that. We communicate openly, collaborate deeply, and ensure you're never on the outside looking in.
Our core values
Five things we'll never compromise on.
Dignity
Every child is treated with respect, patience, and unconditional positive regard.
Individualization
One size never fits all. Every plan, every strategy, and every goal is tailored to the whole child.
Excellence
We hold ourselves to high standards because your child deserves nothing less.
Partnership
Families, staff, and community working together, because that's when children truly thrive.
Joy
Learning should feel good. We create environments where children feel safe enough to try, fail, grow, and celebrate.
