Each campus will gear the subject matter to meet a boy or girl's needs. The physical education and other programs are especially adapted to develop sensory-motor and visual perceptual abilities. The goal of these programs is to help the student become confident in his ability to cope with the problems inherent in his life-situations and to develop a set of personal norms and values. Our science program is a vivid experience rather than merely a classroom subject. Via selected projects, the students have direct hands-on experience with the areas of physics, astronomy, meteorology, biology, geology and natural resources.
Socialization is given special emphasis during the six-week summer school session.
Confidence in self and support from group are the goals of the Outdoor Education course, which is part of this program. A course in Dramatic Interpretation and swimming lessons are also offered, along with instruction in the basic subjects. Midway School provides classes from kindergarten through 12th grade for students classified as Multiple Handicapped.
