Our
program is called PROJECT BEFORE and we offer a half day program for
children ages 3 to 5 years with mild to moderate disabilities, as well
as a full day program for children of the same age with moderate
disabilities that require a greater degree of time and attention.
Speech therapy, as well as occupational and physical therapy, are
provided for those students who are eligible.
Our warm,
nurturing and “kid friendly” environment is the key to our success with
our students. Areas of concentration in our curricular program include
the improvement of gross motor skills, fine motor skills,
pre-kindergarten readiness skills, speech and language skills, as well
as the social and emotional skills necessary for intellectual and social
development.
Throughout the year we celebrate and honor a variety of holidays and
events. These include: A dragon parade for the Chinese new
year, a Valentine’s Day formal, a pajama party for Dr Seuss’s birthday,
a Mother’s day brunch, Carnival Day at the end of the year, a Halloween party and parade, a Thanksgiving
feast, and a visit from Santa at our Holiday party. We also
include field trips in our program some of which are a trip to the
pumpkin patch and the aquarium. The Middle School Student Council comes to visit and spend a day of fun and
learning with games, crafts, stories, and treats.
Making
learning fun is our goal and our students’ smiles let us know we are
succeeding in providing a program that meets their individual needs.
