New School Age Curriculum

We are excited to announce a new curriculum for our school age program.  We began using the Unique Learning System curriculum in September 2008. The Unique Learning System is based on years of classroom experience, teacher input, and study of effective learning strategies for students with the most significant disabilities. The following guiding principles are embedded within this program as a belief system, as was as an expectation of what successful learning will look like.

• Standards-based instruction provides an effective avenue to assure that students are participating in a systematic and progressive learning process.
• There must be a strong expectation that all students can benefit from literacy learning in order to enhance their life-time opportunities.
• When teachers are provided with core instructional materials, they can more readily focus on a student's individual learning needs.

Our teachers are confident this new curriculum will improve our students progress and offer many new educational opportunities.  If you have any questions please call the school.
