Service Delivery and Supports
The program can be delivered in a variety of ways depending upon the needs of the students. Initially, students receive intensive services in a separate setting with low student to teacher ratios. The goal always is to return the student to a lesser restrictive environment based on student readiness. Interdisciplinary teams including the family and outside service providers will meet at least four times per year to align supports and plan services for each student.
