The SSEC Occupational Therapists (OTs) focus on the student’s ability to access the school environment and to participate in the educational program by:
Providing goals, activities, and services that support academic and non-academic outcomes
Evaluating students’ strengths and needs in the participation of meaningful school activities and routines.
Promoting successful student performance in the areas of personal care, student role/ interactive skills, processing skills, play, community integration, and written communication
Reducing the barriers by providing strategies and activities for the classroom, home, and community.
Supporting successful post-school outcomes by developing programs and individualized strategies (plans/interventions) that address transition-related needs.
Employing unique and creative interventions designed to improve student occupational performance, including participating in everyday routines and activities.
Selecting, modifying, and customizing adaptive equipment and assistive technology to facilitate school access and participation.
