"On Your Way Academy" Our Transitional Classroom

We recognize that parents and guardians want their children to succeed in the classroom and interact with peers in an appropriate and positive way. As parents of a child on the spectrum, we understand that meeting the demands of a classroom environment can be a struggle for the whole family. 

We experienced this with our own child who transitioned from ABA therapy to a typical classroom at the age of 9. The worries that we experienced, both academically and socially were overwhelming. We were fortunate enough to have had a successful transition because of the preparation and support our child received from his Behavior Technicians and BCBAs being able to utilize the classroom environment.
