Support Services
Related services are the supportive services necessary for students to help maximize their educational outcomes. At Oak Hill School, there are several related services available to our students. Our team includes; speech-language pathologists, occupational therapists, physical therapists, behavior specialists, social workers, clinicians, nurses, art & music therapists and other specialty consultants available. Each child’s programming is individualized to accommodate the needs of the student.
At Oak Hill School, we utilize a trans-disciplinary approach. Our related services work in conjunction with the teacher and classroom to create individualized programs, goals, and interventions. Specialists train classroom teachers and staff to carry out daily programs that best fit the needs of each student. We believe in an integrated method, where specialists’ recommendations are delivered within a student’s natural environment; which allows for teaching functional and relevant skills, rather than a direct pull-out service.
Our team focuses on removing barriers that affect students ability to learn, helping students develop skills which increase their independence.
Our therapists can be reached via our main office number at (860) 242-2274.
“I love working at Oak Hill School! Oak Hill students get the opportunity to learn real-life skills and become more independent. They make friends and learn how to be members of their community. Oak Hill School helps all students increase their ability to communicate and become self-advocates.”
-Michael Champlin, Oak Hill School Social Worker
