Our students are full of life - teeming with personality and potential. They are moderately to severely impacted by autism. They show strong progress every week in our language-enriched classroom. We run four twenty minute sessions during the school day, where students receive individualized instruction, enabling them to develop verbal behavior. We practice play and social skills and support student independence with the use of applied behavior analysis (ABA) therapy. Some of our students are doing writing activities and beginning phonics, while others are just learning to verbalize their need for basics like water and toileting.
