Bridge Program

The Spectrum Bridge Program is a specialized day treatment program tailored for students in grades K-8. It is specifically designed to address the needs of those students who experience significant cognitive delays and exhibit challenging behaviors, along with a diagnosis of autism spectrum disorders (ASD). This program offers a structured environment where students can receive comprehensive support and interventions that are essential for their development and well-being.

Foundation for Learning

The Bridge Program is based on the knowledge that students thrive through direct instruction and hands-on experiences.

  • Elementary Level: Utilizes a diagnostic intervention-based curriculum.

  • Middle School Level: Strikes a balance between academic and functional skills, enabling students to reach their full potential.

Real-Life Skills

All Bridge students engage in community-based programs that enable them to acquire real-life skills in authentic settings, while also honing their social and communication abilities. Within the Bridge Program, vocational training starts early!
