Classes for Students with Autism

The County Office of Education currently operates five classes for students with Autistic Spectrum Disorders, serving students from preschool through high school. The classes provide highly structured learning environments and use the SAVI model (Structured Auditory and Visual Instruction) which emphasizes the use of visual schedules, communication strategies and behavioral techniques which have proven to be effective for teaching students with Autism.
