We evaluate each student’s needs and capabilities on an individual basis at Morning Star Catholic. Our fully certified teachers use a complete standards-based curriculum, designed specifically for students with special learning needs, in an interactive and technology-rich environment.
Morning Star Catholic has always had a strong academic orientation with an emphasis on reading, math, science, and language arts. Beyond that foundation, we have a broad and varied program of activities including:
- Computer Instruction
- Art Therapy
- Dance Therapy
- Music Therapy
- Occupational Therapy
- Physical Therapy
- Adaptive Physical Education
- Behavioral Therapy
- Speech Therapy
- Social Skills Training
- Outings and Fieldtrips
- Educational Edible Garden
- Weekly Celebration of Mass
- Adaptive Religion Program
- Life Skills Training
- Best Buddies
In addition to strong academics and extensive onsite therapies (including: speech, occupational, physical, and behavioral therapies, plus dance and music therapy) we believe that it is important to demonstrate and practice independent living skills. At least twice a week, all students, have the opportunity to practice and learn practical, hands-on life skills, within the safety and security of our Life Skills Lab.
