Moving from in-home, one-on-one support into a busier classroom environment is a real transition. This service builds the specific skills that make it smoother.
What This Service Includes
Treatment goals targeting classroom-readiness skills directly — following group instructions, tolerating transitions, communicating needs to unfamiliar adults, and managing sensory demands in a busy environment. See Building Classroom-Ready Skills Before Day One for the full breakdown.
Who This Is For
Children approaching school age, and children already enrolled who are struggling with specific aspects of the classroom transition.
How We Coordinate With Schools
With your consent, our BCBA can coordinate directly with your child's school team, aligning in-home goals with IEP objectives — see Working With Your Child's School District.
Where We Provide This Service
Available across our Michigan service area, including Byron Center and Grand Rapids. Get Started Today to get started before the school year begins.
Frequently Asked Questions
When should we start school readiness-focused therapy?
Ideally, well before your child's school start date — ask us about building this into your child's plan as early as possible.
Does therapy stop once school starts?
Not necessarily — many children continue ABA therapy alongside school, often with adjusted after-school scheduling.
Can you attend IEP meetings?
Our BCBA can provide relevant clinical input to support your advocacy at IEP meetings, with your consent, though attendance depends on scheduling. --- *This page is part of our Services guide.*
