Instructional Centers and Social/Behavioral Component
Student Life has established two Instructional Centers and a Social/Behavioral Component.  Each offers one-on-one training by a certified teacher and paraprofessionals with opportunities for students to learn skills in appropriate and real-life settings.
Independent Living Center
The Independent Living Center offers instruction to students in the areas of Clothing, Food, Room Management as well as Personal/Hygiene Care.  Students participate in the Center daily and are taught various activities.  The Independent Living Center offers the student opportunities to learn more independent living skills as well as enabling them to practice already learned skills.
Learning Center
The Learning Center provides after school assistance to help strengthen student's academic and learning skills. The Center is equipped with technology adapted for use by learners with visual impairments. The Computer Lab, an integral part of the Center, offers supervised access to the Internet with parental internet permission forms.
