Self-Contained
Classrooms

Many children with diverse delays and disabilities can benefit greatly from attending school in a general education environment, while receiving the mandated services and individualized attention in a specific classroom setting.

We oversee and coordinate self-contained classrooms to support these children, ensuring an environment that maximizes their potential and is tailored to meet their individual needs.

Self-contained classes, overseen by us, are strategically established within a general education environment, comprising a limited number of children with related educational needs.

In these settings, children receive instruction in a small group led by a qualified special education teacher. The curriculum is meticulously crafted based on the academic level and capabilities of the children. Furthermore, all mandated services are seamlessly provided within the classroom setting.

This approach, characterized by individualized attention and a tailored curriculum, empowers children to progress towards their IEP goals and reach their full potential in an environment that is uniquely suited to their needs.

curriculum

The curriculum is tailored to each child's unique needs and capabilities, implemented at an individual pace and designed to enable the child to absorb the material being taught.

General Ed
environment

The placing of a self-contained classroom within a general education setting allows the children with special needs to interact with typical children their age learning socially appropriate skills.

Potential
integration

Many children who initially attend in a self-contained classroom setting in a general education environment are eventually able to smoothly integrate into a general education classroom setting.

We currently have established numerous
self-contained classrooms throughout NY.
