Our Occupational Therapists provide a comprehensive evaluation of the child’s home and other environments (e.g., school), recommendations for adaptive equipment and training in its use, and guidance and education for family members and caregivers. Our occupational therapists have a holistic perspective, in which the focus is on adapting the environment to fit the child. 

​

Our Physical Therapists provide a comprehensive evaluation to help students with disabilities overcome their physical challenges to achieve their educational goals. Helping such students thrive in a mainstream educational environment helps them learn and socialize at the same pace as their peers. 

We provide therapy for children who present with or are at risk for disorders in speech or language.  A speech/language pathologist (SLP) will work with a child one-on-one or in a small group overcome difficulties involved with a specific speech/language disorder.

 

Therapists may use the following strategies...

• Language intervention activities

  • ​The SLP will interact with a child by playing and talking, using pictures, books, objects, or ongoing events to stimulate language development. The SLP may also model correct vocabulary and grammar and use repetition exercises to build language skills.

• ​Articulation therapy

  • ​Articulation, or sound production, exercises involve having the therapist model correct sounds and syllables in words and sentences for a child, often during play activities. The level of play is age-appropriate and related to the child's specific needs. The SLP will physically show the child how to make certain sounds, such as the "r" sound, and may demonstrate how to move the tongue to produce specific sounds.

• ​Oral-motor/feeding and swallowing therapy

  • ​The SLP may use a variety of oral exercises — including facial massage and various tongue, lip, and jaw exercises — to strengthen the muscles of the mouth for eating, drinking, and swallowing. The SLP may also introduce different food textures and temperatures to increase a child's oral awareness during eating and swallowing.
