Our Philosophy…
Empower Students With Disabilities!
Assistive Technology = Access
AT is crucial in supporting students with disabilities by:
Increasing Access to Curriculum
AT helps students with disabilities engage with instructional materials in ways that match their individual learning needs, ensuring they can participate meaningfully in classroom activities.
Promoting Independence
With tools tailored to their abilities, students can complete tasks on their own—whether it’s reading text, writing responses, or organizing information—reducing reliance on adult support.
Supporting Diverse Learning Styles
AT provides multiple means of expression, engagement, and representation, aligning with Universal Design for Learning (UDL) and accommodating various sensory, motor, and cognitive needs.
Improving Academic Performance
By removing barriers to learning, AT can help students more effectively demonstrate what they know, resulting in better outcomes on assignments, assessments, and participation.
Building Confidence and Self-Advocacy
When students use tools that support their success, they often feel more capable and are more likely to take ownership of their learning and advocate for the supports they need.
Think all AT assessments must be in person? Think again.
Virtual assessments are not only COMPARABLE TO in-person ASSESSMENTS,
but they can also provide
ENHANCED INSIGHTS into a child's interaction with assistive tools
