designed for students who are classified autistic or diagnosed
with other pervasive developmental disorders.
The occupational therapist, physical therapist
and speech language pathologist work closely with the classroom
teacher to provide a highly structured and fully integrated
educational program. Classroom team training consists of
up-to-date behavioral management and specialized educational
techniques.
The classroom is academically oriented, with
specific daily routines that remain consistent. Instructional
programs are planned to meet the students' individual needs and
are aligned with the New York State Learning Standards.
Classroom activities are structured similarly to those of a
typical elementary school class. However, special emphasis is
placed on social and interpersonal skills, behavior management,
communication, language and motor-skill development.
