Our team consists of one special educator for each group of eight students
A complement of paraprofessionals is necessary to educate our students at a 1:1 ratio and additional paraprofessionals as needed.
Our Director and Program Coordinators are fully credentialed special educators and several of our professionals are Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs).
We are positive and energetic; we love our work and our students; and we function as a true team, with a common mission to have our students learn as rapidly and as enjoyably as possible.
