The team is comprised of teachers, paraprofessionals and support personnel including occupational and physical therapists, a social worker, a psychologist, speech and language therapists and a nurse. Teacher consultants for vision and hearing impaired students are also available. In addition, Peters coordinates services with community agencies for the benefit of students and families. The school is designed with many special facilities. These include a therapy room, therapeutic swimming pool, and wheelchair-accessible play areas.
All students are worthy of respect.
All students are contributing members of their community. Education is a shared responsibility of student, home, school and community. Therefore, we are committed to supporting each student's determination to achieve independence, develop skills and enhance abilities. The staff and parents work on committees to develop goals, as well as to research and implement programs in support of these goals. This ongoing effort uses field trips to stores, restaurants and worksites where students have opportunities to learn socially appropriate behavior in the community and to increase vocational skills.
