Seminole County special needs school closes suddenly, leaving families scrambling WFTV [Video]

LONGWOOD, Fla. — A school focused on educating children with autism suddenly shut its doors last week, forcing families to desperately search for other means of childcare just as the school year was set to begin.

The owners of Blossoms Academy, a subsidiary of Behavior Blossoms LLC, texted families to announce the immediate suspension of their program.

“Due to delays from funding sources and the high cost of overhead, the IRS has declared our business unsustainable,” the message from Vanessa Ashton Kindy said. “We were just at the peak of performance… unfortunately, this is why small agencies have so much trouble keeping their doors open.”

In separate messages shared with WFTV, Kindy wrote she “sacrificed” too much and didn’t pay as much attention to profits as she should have to ensure the program had a “heart.”
