School Notes Overview:

Holy Childhood's Children’s Program offers comprehension and therapeutic services to children ages five to twenty-one. Those enrolled in the program are classified as Mentally Retarded or Multiply Disabled. The overall curriculum focuses on the development of the “whole” child/student with emphasis placed on academic, social, physical, vocational and recreational growth. Referrals to the Children’s Program are made by school district officials (CSE), parents, medical professionals and other community/school agencies. Students referred to the Children’s Program must go through an Intake Process. The Intake Process consists of a tour, application, review of records and observations. Initial referrals should be made directly to Supervisor Melanie Byrne who works directly with an Intake Committee to determine whether or not referrals can be accepted into program. Students enrolled at the School of the Holy Childhood follow a modified New York State curriculum. Students also participate in the New York State Alternate Assessment. All students have an Individual Education Plan (IEP). This plan is generated collaboratively by the home school district and Holy Childhood staff. The Children’s Program works directly with the Helen H. Heller clinic which is also part of the School of the Holy Childhood. The clinic provides and/or contracts for the related service needs of the children. The Children’s Program consists of four 8:1:1 classes and seven 12:1:1 classes. The 8:1:1 classes are generally for our elementary aged students (ages 5-10 years). Our teaching staff is comprised of highly trained and motivated instructors who are exceptional in their personal commitment and involvement in the lives of our students.
