Customized Programs for All Abilities

We empower students to achieve their goals.

OUR SCHOOL SETTING

Lehmann School utilizes a standards-based, modified, and interactive curriculum. Unique Learning System (ULS) and News-2-You (N2Y) are our primary models of instruction in our classroom setting. Some of the many tools and benefits included in this curriculum are:

    • Subject Areas are aligned with students IEP
    • Custom Assessments
    • Age-Appropriate Content for 3-21
    • Leveled Learning Opportunities
    • Standards-Based Instruction
    • Modified and Accommodated for all learners

Each student is viewed as an individual learner in our school setting. Therefore, our curriculum has a unique feature of customizing each student’s account to meet their specific learning needs, named GPS. Students have the opportunity to log on to their individualized account and complete daily instructional goals and objectives specific to the learner.

GPS is a data collection and assessment center designed to guide the instructional path of students with unique learning needs. The student’s instructional team enters standard-based descriptions of a student’s performance in the student profile, helping to identify a differentiation level. The differentiation level corresponds to the students’ instructional materials and their present levels of performance. Skill Tracking in GPS Profile provides the instructional team with a summary of all relevant resources available for students to achieve their goals. In addition, each tracked skill provides a place for the educational team to write a specific and appropriate correlating IEP goal.

These professionals work in partnership with our staff, who skillfully provide guidance, teaching, and training in our school environment.

Transdisciplinary Model

Our school utilizes a transdisciplinary approach in the delivery of student services. The transdisciplinary approach integrates educational, medical, and therapeutic services continuously throughout the entire school day. This model adheres to the Principle of Role Release, which enables team members to exchange strategies and techniques across disciplines, thus linking educational, medical, and therapeutic goals across all aspects of the school day.
