ON-STAFF OCCUPATIONAL THERAPIST AND SPEECH AND LANGUAGE THERAPIST

Occupational Therapist and the Sensory Gym

The Sensory Gym is an exceptional tool in the development of young children. All students access the Sensory Gym each week with our Occupational Therapist. The OT program provides a stimulating environment where children engage with various activities designed to enhance their sensory processing skills, along with their strength, balance, and coordination, which are crucial for motor development. The Sensory Gym supports cognitive growth by allowing children to explore cause and effect, problem-solving, and spatial awareness. Sensory play promotes social interaction and communication as children navigate shared spaces and work together on tasks. 

Speech and Language Therapist

Our Speech and Language Therapist helps develop effective communication skills in all our students, working with them to enhance speech, language, and social communication through engaging, play-based activities. By focusing on listening, vocabulary development, and expressive language, we help children build the foundational skills they need for successful interactions and learning. Children develop confidence and positive peer relationships by expressing themselves clearly and connecting with others. Strong communication skills are vital for lifelong success, and we’re committed to supporting every child on their journey to becoming confident communicators.
