We are a small school serving only special education students who could not be adequately served in their home school due to behavior, social, or other significant needs. The students in our class range in age from 11-18 and spend the majority of their day working on life-skills and functional academics such as household chores, handling money, and communicating their wants and needs. Many of them are non-verbal or have limited verbal ability. Some of them use technology such as iPads or other devices to communicate, others use pictures, and others use gestures. Self expression is a huge component to their day and is ultimately the key to a higher quality of life for them.
