Supporting students with autism and developmental differences within their school environment, school-based Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) services integrate targeted therapeutic strategies into the classroom to promote learning, social skills, and independence. School-based ABA empowers students to thrive academically and socially in a familiar, structured setting.
Natural Learning Environment
By providing ABA therapy directly in the school setting, students can develop essential skills where they naturally spend their day. This setting allows them to work on academic tasks, routines, and social interactions alongside their peers, helping them generalize skills for greater success.
Team Collaboration for Consistent Support
Our ABA therapists collaborate closely with teachers, aides, counselors, and other educational staff to create and implement individualized plans that fit seamlessly within the classroom structure. This team approach ensures that behavior support strategies are consistent across the school day, helping students transition smoothly between activities.
Focus on Social and Academic Success
School-based ABA programs target essential classroom and social skills such as attention, task-following, waiting, and peer interactions like sharing and making friends. By working on these goals, students can better engage in the classroom, build friendships, and participate more fully in school life.
Functional Behavior Assessments (FBA)
We conduct Functional Behavior Assessments to understand behaviors that may impact learning. These insights help us design Behavior Intervention Plans (BIPs) that teach positive replacement behaviors, allowing students to achieve academic and social milestones more comfortably.
Data-Driven Progress Tracking
Data collection is at the core of ABA therapy. We continuously track progress to ensure each student's goals are met and adjust plans as necessary. This ensures our approach remains flexible, effective, and aligned with each student’s Individualized Education Plan (IEP) and unique needs.
School-based ABA offers students a comprehensive, supportive pathway to success in their academic journey. By addressing both behavioral and social challenges in a familiar setting, students gain the skills needed for academic achievements, social connections, and greater independence in their school and community.
