LIFE SKILLS PROGRAM |
| The Life Skills Program is a curriculum approach that blends academic,
daily living, personal/social, and occupational skills into integrated lessons
designed to help students learn to function independently in society. Life
skills include a wide range of knowledge and skill interactions believed
to be essential for adult independent living.
The Life Skills Program provides a wide variety of experiences for students with special needs. Students who are eligible require education and support to learn three major skill areas, which are daily living, personal/social, and occupational skills. The ultimate goals of the Life Skills Program include preparation for
the world of work, development of life skills, and becoming independent,
responsible, and productive citizens. |
