The Classrooms
Our education program allows healthy emotional, personal and physical growth for each student. We foster academic and applied academic opportunities both within and outside the classroom setting. Classrooms are language based and use formal programs to enhance language expression including sign and visual programs for non-verbal and limited communicators. Our classrooms are equipped with formal math and reading programs. We integrate many adapted, supportive materials, including hands-on and community experiences that support academic material. Students explore the concepts and practices of working in the real world through classroom instruction and pre-vocational training. They learn and practice cooperatively and as independently. They work on the valuable skills of positive attitudes, habits of mutual respect, self-esteem, self-expression/advocacy, decision making, and tolerance. The program's social skills and character education components strongly parallel the classroom and pre-vocational training.

Our
classrooms are bright and welcoming. We have small class sizes
and teacher/student ratios are high, between 1:1 and 1:5. Our
school day is 8:15 to 2:45, Monday through Friday. The
Hanover campus is always staffed, 365 days per year. The
academic year is divided into the regular school year and the summer
program.
Students who stay on campus through the summer break participate in
our Summer Program which continues the excellence of educational
opportunity in a more relaxed setting. Students utilize the
180 acres of the campus. In addition, there are opportunities
to leave campus and participate in community social and cultural
events.
