Do students receive therapeutic services?

Yes. Every day students receive Social Skills classes (from our SLP) and Coping Skills/Regulation classes (from our OT). Additionally, students attend weekly classes on improving Executive Functioning and Self-Esteem.

Do you maintain regular communication with the families?

We provide a fresh approach to learning by celebrating and welcoming families into our program. Families have the opportunity to keep abreast of their child's progress and learning by participating in our home-training program, observing and/or volunteering in the classroom, accessing our on-line weekly curriculum and progress reports, viewing the classroom's daily online photo journal, reading our monthly newsletter, and participating in monthly family events. By having a strong family commitment, we view our program and your home as a seamless day.
