| The Integrated Preschool community of
staff, students and families works as a
team. Through a multi-disciplinary
center-based approach, children grow, learn
and develop skills to achieve social and
academic success. Our goal is to create a
home and school partnership where parents
and teachers work together to support
children's learning. |
|
|
The
Integrated Preschool Program follows a
collaborative model, in which the special
education teacher, classroom assistant,
speech-language pathologist, occupational
therapist, physical therapist, and
behavioral therapist work closely together
as a team to foster and promote your child's
developmental skills. The program is
designed for children between the ages of
3-5 who exhibit developmental delays and
require a specially designed program to
better meet their educational needs. The
preschool program is accredited by the
National Association for the Education of
Young Children (NAEYC). |
|
A child is typically referred to the program
through Early Intervention, a physician,
and/or parent concerns. A child initially
undergoes a screening process, which is set
up through the special education chairperson
at Center/Sylvester School. The screenings
are scheduled on a monthly basis and are
performed by members of the preschool team.
Results of the screening may indicate
further assessment is needed. If so, the
child will be evaluated in the areas of
concern. |
