Outcomes

"Civitan has made a huge difference in the lives of Isaac* and Leroy*. The last court appearance the Judge even commented on how much better they carried themselves. I am very impressed with the difference in their communication skills. Isaac has learned his colors, ABCs, numbers, shapes and social skills. Leroy has learned colors, shapes and he has developed a personality. It is amazing to see the difference that Civitan has made in their lives. Thanks to all the teachers, counselors, physical and occupational therapists that have worked so hard to help these children blossom."

Thanks again,
Trish*

*All the names in this letter have been changed to protect the family. Trish was just a foster mother, but she worked tirelessly with Isaac, Leroy and their siblings. She went on to adopt all of the children and today they are thriving thanks to her love and care.

The Primary Goal in the Early Childhood Special Education program is to prepare our children to function at an age appropriate level when they attend kindergarten. We want to see all our children reach their highest potential when they enroll in public school. The following skills are some of the objectives we work on in our Pre-K program:
What is Early Intervention?

Many of our students test our of the Early Intervention program after the first year due to the fact that the parents recognized a need for Early Intervention and the children got the needed one-on-one instruction to prepare them for kindergarten. One of our former Civitan Preschool students who received early intervention services, has gone on to elementary school and is in the Gifted and Talented Program.

Before the students reach the Pre-K classroom, we work on Early Intervention skills. These skills are classified as Early Intervention objectives:
