Beginning in August 2021, Lipscomb Academy and High Hopes Development Center forge a historic partnership on Lipscomb’s lower school campus to better serve children in need of therapeutic services. Physically located in the heart of Lipscomb’s Solly School, High Hopes' first-of-its-kind satellite clinic will offer therapeutic services for Lipscomb Academy students as well as outpatients from the surrounding Davidson County community. The High Hopes clinic at the Solly School will replicate the therapy experience of the main campus in Franklin. Children will benefit from large treatment areas, private therapy rooms, and a sensory space, all outfitted with developmentally appropriate equipment that makes therapy effective and fun.

Since its establishment 37 years ago, High Hopes has met the needs of children and their families by creating an inclusive preschool and pediatric therapy clinic in one location. By combining both academic and therapeutic necessities, High Hopes is the only organization to incorporate this unique model in Williamson County, a service that will now be available to Lipscomb Academy students and children in Davidson County at Lipscomb’s Solly School.

Beyond academic expectations and classroom instruction, our students with special needs will be part of our spiritual formation program. Through Bible, chapel, and other activities, all students grow in their love for the Lord and experience the joy and peace that comes through a growing relationship with Jesus Christ.
