This program provides highly structured district- or site-based classes designed primarily for students with autism spectrum disorders. The applications of Structured Teaching and ABA have demonstrated effective outcomes for children with disabilities in the school environment. A consultant works with both Structured Teaching and ABA classes. In addition, a consulting psychologist supports each class. Related services include individual (twice a week) and group (once a week) speech services for elementary and middle school sites only. Parent training is provided to families. Consultant psychiatric services are provided to individual students as needed. Community-based instruction is provided at all levels. Transition and career awareness services are provided on the secondary level. Vocational and technical training is available to high school students at our Career and Technical Center for an additional fee. A Young Adult Program is available to students 18-21 years of age. Staffing ratio: 8:1:2.
