Carroll Hills Family & Children's Program Center
Carroll Hills School
Carroll Hills School provides classroom instruction for students ages 5-21 who have mental retardation along with other disabilities including speech or motor delays and behavioral difficulties. Currently, the school houses 4 school age classes: Elementary, Middle School, High School 1 and High School 2. The focus of these classes is not only on learning academics in a way that can be used for success in everyday life, but also on daily living skills such as money management, housekeeping, meal planning, personal care and vocational skills. Students work at community job sites once they are in the high school classes and earn regular paychecks, paying taxes just like you and I.
It is our hope to provide the students with the tools necessary to live
as independently as possible as an adult. Speech, occupational and
physical therapies are also key components of the school program. Carroll
Hills School classes are provided in accordance with the rules and
regulations of the Ohio Department of Education.
Carroll Hills Preschool
Carroll Hills Preschool offers 4 half-day
preschool classes for children ages 3-5 from Carroll County. The classes
are licensed by the Ohio Department of Education and are designed to work
with children with documented delays in speech, fine and gross motor
skills, learning abilities, and/or behavioral difficulties. In addition,
slots are allotted in each classroom for children who are considered to be
developing typically. This allows for integration and modeling of
appropriate behaviors and skills for the age level. Here again,
intervention at a young age is key to future success. Most of the
preschoolers who come to us with some type of delay leave preschool and go
on to regular classes in their neighborhood schools.
For Information contact Laurie Farber, Preschool Service Cordinator at 330-627-7651.
Carroll Hills Early Intervention
Early Intervention (E.I.) provides services to infants and toddlers who have been diagnosed with a disability (such as Down Syndrome) or are at high risk for developmental delays due to premature births or other environmental or familial factors.
E.I. services include home visits by the Early Intervention Specialist, Carroll Hills Playgroup to help develop socialization skills, and parent education as well as speech, occupational and physical therapies.
Research shows that by beginning this young, a child's chance for meeting developmental milestones and achieving at grade level later in school greatly increases.
