Marklund Day School-Nathan Education Center The Nathan Education Center (NEC), located at 1210 Hunter Drive in Elgin, IL,  is 1.3 miles east of the intersection of Liberty St. (Rt 25) and Summit Ave., and 2.7 miles west of Summit St. (Rt 58) and Sutton Rd. (Rt 59). NEC is home to two programs: Marklund Day School as well as Marklund’s Bridge Builder CDS Program. NEC’s Day School area features 5 Life Skills classrooms specifically designed for students on the autism spectrum. We take students who have cognitive impairments, deficits in expressive communication, and some also have medical needs, and we develop our programming based on their needs. Every day is very structured, each student has individualized instruction and goals. Marklund’s Bridge Builder Community Day Services (CDS) program is an Adult Services therapeutic learning and training program that assists individuals with developing new skills and enhancing personal interests and strengths as they pursue independent, fulfilling futures.
