Our social communication classrooms provide services for children with autism with the most intense needs. We have one classroom for children in grades K-2 and another for grades 3-5. There are up to six children per classroom. We provide the intensive instructional programming they need to reach their unique potential. A classroom teacher and three educational assistantss provide sufficient amounts of adult attention in one-to-one or small group instructional settings to meet individualized goals. A variety of strategies are used to encourage independence, foster academic growth, and address behavior challenges. Speech therapy, occupational therapy and physical therapy are provided according to individual IEPs.
Autism Support Team
In order to better serve children with autism in a variety of educational environments, the WCESC developed the Autism Support Team.
The Support Team provides school-based instructional and behavioral consultation services to school teams. Services include: analyzing and designing development supports within specific environments, modeling instructional techniques, problem-solving with teams to develop and/or modify behavior support plans, building capacity through presentations to school faculty and support staff, providing technical supports, consulting with teams and families on specific students. |
