Programs are based on the premise that through careful assessment, planning and continual teaching, students can achieve their maximum potential. Classroom programs are held in public school settings during normal school hours or in settings conducive to vocational experiences. Programs are designed according to each student's strengths by a team of professionals and parents or guardians which assesses progress and makes adjustments when necessary. The goals established by these teams are reinforced both at school and at home, ensuring continuity of learning and enhancing growth potential. Instruction of students continues even after they leave their classrooms.
Residential students live in group homes in Connecticut communities.
Their leisure activities at home and in their community help develop communication capabilities, daily living skills and fine and gross motor skills. Because our programs are community-based, they foster inclusion in public school activities and neighborhoods. Students have the opportunity for stimulation, friendship and peer interaction both at school and at home. Open year-round Applications are accepted for students from ages 6 to 18. Consideration may be given to children younger than six and older than 18 years.
