Students from Regular Education, Learning Support, and self-contained placements such as Autistic Support, Emotional Support, Life Skills Support, and Multiple Disabilities Support can benefit from Speech and Language support services.
Students are evaluated on a case by case basis. Direct and/or indirect services are provided based on the impact a child’s communicative delays has on his/her educational progress.
When deemed necessary, students are evaluated to determine eligibility for a speech and language support program. When the eligibility criteria is met, an Individual Education Program is generated to provide the necessary support(s).
A collaborative team develops an effective set of supports to help improve communication skills and promote learning. The team also helps determine if a student would benefit from Alternative and Augmentative Communication devices.
