What makes Gina Korczak and Maygan O'Donnell with Uniquely You Learning Center good neighbors?What happens when two mothers, both raising children on the autism spectrum, decide traditional education isn't working for their kids? Something extraordinary emerges. Meet Maygan O'Donnell and Gina Korczak, founders of Uniquely You Learning Center, who are revolutionizing special education with their holistic approach for elementary-age children with developmental challenges. Their vision goes beyond academics. At Uniquely You, every day includes communication support, sensory enrichment, physical fitness, social-emotional learning, mindfulness, and music therapy. This comprehensive approach nurtures the whole child—academically, socially, emotionally, and behaviorally. As Maygan explains, "Our mission is to help children thrive by offering personalized instruction and support." They've created an environment where children aren't just accepted but celebrated for their uniqueness. The center challenges a persistent myth about special needs education. Contrary to the belief that these children can't thrive in structured settings, Maygan and Gina witness extraordinary progress daily. Their dedication extends beyond classroom hours—they spend their free time finding creative ways to connect with each child's interests. When one student showed fascination with wheels, they tracked down a 500-pound wheel on Facebook Marketplace, creating an unexpected source of joy in their sensory gym. This dedication transforms their school into a family, a safe haven where children who may not be able to advocate for themselves are seen, supported, and understood. As they look to the future, they plan to grow alongside their students, developing a life skills lab to foster independence.
