Original Research by School Decision on A.e.r.o-star (autism)-satellite
A.E.R.O-STAR (Autism)-Satellite is a special education school in Burbank, Illinois, operated by the A.E.R.O Special Education Cooperative. The school is now closed.
Because the school has closed, enrollment data, student demographics, academic performance results, and other operational metrics are not available. The school served students in middle grades and was specifically designed to serve students with autism spectrum disorder.
Burbank itself is a working- and middle-class southwest Chicago suburb, positioned between Midway Airport and the larger manufacturing and distribution corridor that runs through the southwest suburbs. The town is built out and mature, with modest home appreciation and very limited new construction; activity centers on infill rehabilitation rather than major development. Residents work substantially in manufacturing, health care, construction, and retail sectors. Commercial life lines Cicero Avenue and Harlem Avenue at the town's edges, and civic anchors include the Burbank Park District and Prairie Trails Public Library. Transit connects through CTA bus service, and the area sits close to Midway and to Interstate 55.
For families who were seeking specialized autism services in Burbank, the closure of this satellite location means that services are no longer provided at this address. Parents seeking similar programs should contact the A.E.R.O Special Education Cooperative directly to learn about remaining locations or alternative placements within the cooperative or through other special education providers serving the region.
