Transition Services

We prepare students for life after school by teaching a combination of academic, vocational, self-care, social-communicative, self-determination, and independence skills. When students graduate they can transition into a variety of different placements, including supportive college programsday habilitationsupported employment, and a range of jobs. In order to best prepare the students to achieve their desired destination, students’ educational teams participate in Transition Planning as soon as students enter the school.

Transition planning is based on the premise that all activities, whether academic or pre-vocational, are designed to increase responsibilities and independence. Emphasis is placed on teaching skills that develop employment potential: appropriate behaviors in school, home, and the community; the ability to follow directions; the skill to self-advocate; independent living skills; and an understanding of post-secondary options and goals.
