The goal of speech/language services is to provide our students with the tools and strategies they need to communicate effectively and efficiently throughout their school day. Students who have been identified with a speech and/or language impairment that affects their ability to access the general education curriculum are eligible to receive speech and language therapy at school.

Specific areas of communication that a Speech/Language Pathologist addresses are:
Fluency (stuttering), voice, receptive language (comprehension), expressive language (verbal expression), articulation (sound production), and pragmatic skills (social language).
Therapy is provided in or out of the classroom setting depending on the needs of the student.
We closely collaborate with the occupational therapists, physical therapists, and social workers.
We also consult with classroom teachers on an ongoing basis.
