Serving grades K-5, the School-Age Enrichment Program provides a group program utilizing multi-sensory modalities with emphasis on communication and social skills presented in a creative and engaging manner. The focus is on reading, mathematics, handwriting, memory and problem solving skills. The use of educational software develops computer skills. The cognitive techniques and new skills can be easily transferred at home and within the child’s existing classroom and/or placement. While the child participates in group activities, parents participate in relevant seminars and join in on the group activities.
